Victoria

Since the year 2010, Golf Victoria has represented female and male golfers who belong to more than 400 clubs throughout the state, following the merger between Golf Victoria with the Victorian Golf Association (formed in 1902) and the Victorian Ladies Golf Union (founded in 1906). The governing body hosts a number of competitions throughout the year for women, men golfers of all ages, including junior and senior. The best of Australian courses is located in Victoria and a lot of them are situated on the renowned Melbourne Sandbelt. Old favourites from the 1930s and 1920s like Royal Melbourne (West) and (East), Kingston Heath and Commonwealth fight for highest positions in the rankings against modern tracks along the Mornington Peninsula like Greg Norman's National (Moonah) and Tom Doak's St Andrews Beach.
