Royal Melbourne Golf Club, Golf course in Black Rock, Australia
The Royal Melbourne Golf Club in Black Rock operates two 18-hole courses known as the West Course and the East Course. Both layouts draw golfers seeking challenging and well-maintained fairways and greens set across an expansive grounds.
The club was founded in 1891 and moved to its current location from Caulfield during the 1920s as the city grew outward. This relocation allowed the course to maintain its operations away from increasing urban pressures.
The club keeps golf traditions alive while hosting international tournaments year-round that draw players from around the world. Members and visitors experience a strong sense of heritage mixed with contemporary amenities.
Visitors from outside should check ahead since guest play follows membership affiliation rules that vary by day and season. Weekday visits tend to offer shorter waits and a calmer playing experience than weekend rounds.
The Composite Course merges selected holes from both the East and West layouts to create a special playing experience used for major championships. Few golfers realize this middle-ground option exists between the two main courses.
