History edit
The club is located on Sweden's southern tip, along the Baltic Sea. Its first six holes were built in 1932 and by 1965 the club was the first in Scandinavia to feature 27 holes.[1] It is one of few links courses in Sweden and is repeatedly ranked one of the best courses in the country.[2][3]
The club has hosted the PLM Open on the European Tour as well as the Telia Grand Prix on the Challenge Tour.
It has also hosted many amateur tournaments such as the 1977 Vagliano Trophy and the European Amateur Team Championship in 2001 and 2019.[1]
