Fairway to Furlong is hosting the Royal Ascot Golf Day on Monday 16th June 2014, the day before the most prestigious fixture in the racing calendar. The day will provide race goers with the opportunity to enjoy 18 holes on one of Berkshire's finest golf courses followed by a dinner and auction in aid of Help for Heroes and the Injured Jockeys Fund.
The Fairway to Furlong day begins with breakfast in the clubhouse followed by 18 holes and a three course dinner. A panel consisting of famous faces from the racing world will run you through their views about the major races and supporting cards - and hopefully provide you with a few winners for the upcoming week!
Founded in 1928, The Berkshire hosts The Berkshire Trophy, one of the UK’s major amateur competitions. Past winners include Nick Faldo, Sandy Lyle and Ross Fisher. The Berkshire has also hosted the English Amateur Championship and the British Senior Amateur Championship, and in 2009 it was the host of final qualifying for the Senior British Open Championship.
There are few sporting venues that can match the rich heritage and history of Ascot Racecourse. For almost 250 years, Royal Ascot has established itself as a national institution and the centrepiece of the British social calendar as well as being the ultimate stage for the best racehorses in the world. Tradition, pageantry, fashion and style all meet in a glorious setting at one of the most beautiful racecourses in the country. The quality of the horse racing at Royal Ascot is simply outstanding, with nearly £4 million in prize money on offer.
