Course Report

Eindhovensche Golf Club was founded by Dr. Philips, brother of the founder of the Philips Electrical Company, which gave rise to Eindhoven's global industrial renown.

About

Eindhovensche Golf Club, designed by Harry S. Colt, is a woodland and heathland course south of the city. Known for tree-lined fairways, natural hazards, and classic Colt strategy, the club regularly receives accolades as one of the Netherlands’ finest layouts. Its elegant clubhouse, excellent practice facilities, and conservation of natural beauty make it a true connoisseur’s destination.

Caddie Tip

Play straight and avoid being aggressive off the tee; the forested, narrow fairways demand careful club selection and precision. Expect subtle doglegs and strategic bunkering. On approaches, favor the high side on greens and beware water hazards, especially on the closing holes. Low shots often roll unpredictably so club choice is crucial.

The Main Challenge

The most demanding aspect of Eindhovensche is its narrow forest-lined fairways, which require disciplined shot-making and strategic placement off the tee. Subtle doglegs and deep bunkers guard tough approaches, and water hazards regularly come into play late in the round, making every decision count especially under tournament pressure.

The Good

Golfers praise the tranquil setting among mature trees and heather, the strategic genius of Colt’s routing, substantial year-round conditioning, and the picturesque clubhouse. The blend of natural hazards and variety encourages thoughtful play, and the friendly ambience is consistently noted in reviews.

The Not So Good

Some guests mention narrow landing areas can punish errant tee shots, and slow play is occasionally an issue on busy tournament days. Players suggest more signage and improvements to the first cut near fairways, as balls tend to get lost easily among natural rough and trees.
