Earlsferry Thistle Golf Club

A warm welcome to the Earlsferry Thistle Golf Club, a small club with a great and proud history. Two Open Champions were former members of the club, Jack Simpsonwho won the Open in 1884 and James Braida five times winner of the Open. The course design was influenced by none other than Old Tom Morris.

We have been playing as a Club on the Elie Links in the scenic East Neuk of Fife since 1875. Neuk is the Scottish word for corner and in this corner of Fife we enjoy golf all year on the Links. Closure of the course is a rarity, mats are unheard of and we hardly ever play on temporary greens. The course is by the sea and golfers enjoy panoramic views over the Firth of Forth and beyond.

We have an all year fixture list of competitions and play inter club matches. We are limited to a maximum of 70 male members and the Earlsferry Thistle Ladies Club are limited to 30 lady members. We currently have our compliment of full members and our Outside waiting list is closed. Further information is available on our Membership Page. The Thistle Ladies Club also welcome new members.

At the Thistle we enjoy our golf and welcome all fellow golfers to play in our Open that is held in June each year.
