Royal Birkdale Golf Club England 2011
This was the last of our 12 courses we played on our trip and I ranked it number 1 on our trip. This was one great golf course. The members were great and we were treated very well. This video is from the 10th hole as we were playing in some very brisk winds. As I stated, this was my number one ranked course on our trip this year. A MUST for all to play! I loved all the holes winding through the sand dunes.

Golf journalist James Mason from planetgolfreview.com and sportsjournalist.info plays Royal Birkdale Golf Club, Southport, Merseyside, part of Englands Golf Coast, Designed by JH Taylor and Frederic George Hawtee.
Royal Birkdale has a unique claim to fame: Tom Watson, at the height of his game, won his fifth Open Championship here in 1983. No one believed that he wouldn't go on to equal Harry Vardon's record of six Open Championships, but like Peter Thomson back in 1965 this proved to be the scene of his last triumph.

Places to see in ( Southport - UK )
Southport is a large seaside town in Merseyside, England. Southport lies on the Irish Sea coast and is fringed to the north by the Ribble estuary. The town of Southport is 16.7 miles (26.9 km) north of Liverpool and 14.8 miles (23.8 km) southwest of Preston.
Historically part of Lancashire, the town of Southport was founded in 1792 when William Sutton, an innkeeper from Churchtown, built a bathing house at what now is the south end of Lord Street. At that time, the area, known as South Hawes, was sparsely populated and dominated by sand dunes. At the turn of the 19th century, the area became popular with tourists due to the easy access from the nearby Leeds and Liverpool Canal. The rapid growth of Southport largely coincided with the Industrial Revolution and the Victorian era. Town attractions include Southport Pier with its Southport Pier Tramway, the second longest seaside pleasure pier in the British Isles and Lord Street, an elegant tree-lined shopping street, once home of Napoleon III of France.
Extensive sand dunes stretch for several miles between Birkdale and Woodvale to the south of the town of Southport . The Ainsdale sand dunes have been designated as a national nature reserve and a Ramsar site. Local fauna include the Natterjack toad and the Sand lizard. The town of Southport contains examples of Victorian architecture and town planning, on Lord Street and elsewhere. A particular feature of the town of Southport is the extensive tree planting. This was one of the conditions required by the Hesketh family when they made land available for development in the 19th century. Hesketh Park at the northern end of the town is named after them, having been built on land donated by Rev. Charles Hesketh.
Southport today is still one of the most popular seaside resorts in the UK. It hosts various events, including an annual air show on and over the beach, and the largest independent flower show in the UK, in Victoria Park. The town is at the centre of England's Golf Coast and has hosted the Open Championship at the Royal Birkdale Golf Club.
Due to its position by the coast, Southport is a linear settlement and as such can only be approached in a limited number of directions by road. Due to the limited number of directions by road, many of the services operated in Southport are from one place South to one place North or East of Southport. Southport railway station has a frequent service of trains to Liverpool and a regular service to Wigan, Bolton, Manchester and Manchester Airport.

Southport (/ˈsaʊθpɔːrt/) is a large seaside town in Merseyside, England. At the 2001 census, it had a population of 90,336, making it the eleventh most populous settlement in North West England.[4]
Southport lies on the Irish Sea coast and is fringed to the north by the Ribble estuary. The town is 16.7 miles (26.9 km) north of Liverpool and 14.8 miles (23.8 km) southwest of Preston.
