History
After Paul Gibbons sold his shares in Hurst Publishing and Auto Trader, he created the Leaderboard brand and negotiated the purchase of Chart Hills Golf Club. [1]
The golf course at Chart Hills was designed by English Golf legend and six times major winner Nick Faldo. It has been described as ‘a gem of a course’ by Golf Europe (Powered by Golf Channel) [2]
As with other Leaderboard owned courses, Chart Hills regularly plays host to high profile golfing events. It is a European Tour Qualifying School venue and has hosted the Ladies European tour Event, The Ladies English Open.[3]
Chart Hills was described as a ‘masterpiece’ in a review of the course by National Club Golfer [4]
Like the other Leaderboard courses, it is part of Leaderboard Golf’s ‘Premier Golf Alliance’ in allegiance with high profile golfing venues like La Manga in Spain and Gleneagles in Scotland.
Chart Hills is considered to be 33rd in England on the ‘top 100 golf courses’ ranking website. [5]
