  • Bunkers have been reshaped over the years, and several holes have been revised.

History of Kooyonga Golf Club

Kooyonga owes its existence to a train strike in 1922, which led Herbert Rymill to a stretch of swamp and sand dune country. The first nine holes opened in 1923, and the full 18 followed in 1924. Rymill designed the course himself.
