A star-studded line-up
Some of the biggest names in golf will descend on the course for a star-studded competition this week at the prestigious Staffordshire club – the brainchild of JCB Chairman Lord Bamford.
The illustrious line-up includes the likes of Darren Clarke, Ernie Els, Vijay Singh, Colin Montgomerie and John Daly – boasts a total of 18 major victories (including seven Open Championship winners) five Ryder Cup captains and over 35 Ryder Cup appearances.
A tour-ready contemporary masterpiece
The JCB Golf and Country Club reflects the bold, ambitious vision of Lord Bamford, Chairman of the iconic construction and agricultural equipment manufacturer – JCB: nothing less than the creation of a tour-ready contemporary masterpiece in course design, set amid the lush green rolling countryside of Staffordshire, with luxury accommodation and dining, quite simply the ultimate in golfing retreats.
The host and the man in form
Darren Clarke will host the event and all profits will be donated to the JCB’s NSPCC Platinum Jubilee Appeal.
