Worthing Golf Club Worthing Golf Club with its two 18 hole courses, occupies a commanding position on the slopes of the South Downs all of which is now included in the South Downs National Park. Worthing Lower (Championship) Course is the most interesting of all the Downland Links courses and the best test of golf. The Upper Course provides an interesting contrast to the Lower Course. With a total length of 5211 yards against the 6505 yards of the Lower, it is a less exacting test for the handicap player. However, its smaller scale requires greater accuracy and allows fewer margins for error. Both courses command breathtaking views of the English Channel, the finest provided by the holes around the turn on the Upper Course. They offer you a panoramic view of the whole stretch of the Channel from the Seven Sisters to the east across to the Isle of Wight in the west.
