It's safe to say that our greenkeepers got their revenge on our Golf At Goodwood Members on Saturday 15 October on The Downs Course.

The greenkeepers have been plotting their revenge and got up early on Saturday 15 October to create a fun but difficult course to get their own back on our members for not repairing pitchmarks, divots and raking bunkers throughout the season!
