Woodhall Spa\u2019s Hotchkin Course will host the Titleist Women\u2019s Four-Ball national final in August <\/p>\nEngland Golf has announced the launch of an all\u2011new national competition for 2026 \u2013 the Titleist Women\u2019s Four-Ball.<\/p>\n
The four-ball format has grown in the past 12 months, with 2025 showing a 68% increase in four-ball scores being entered for handicapping purposes in England.<\/p>\n
And with the governing body\u2019s commitment to driving inclusivity and accessibility across the sport, the new tournament will provide more opportunities for women and girls to play team golf, with a chance to progress to a National Final.<\/p>\n
Open to all clubs affiliated to England Golf, the competition invites clubs to run their own women\u2019s four\u2011ball Stableford qualifier and submit their winning pair by July 8. The pair returning the highest number of Stableford points in each club qualifier will go forward as that club\u2019s official entry. The cost to enter a winning pair is only \u00a310.<\/p>\n
In keeping with England Golf\u2019s commitment to accessibility and opportunity, we also invite clubs who enter to make a recommended donation of \u00a35 per pair from all those taking part in the club qualifying round, to the England Golf Trust. All contributions will support the charity\u2019s brilliant work in providing opportunities for young people to continue to play and progress in golf.<\/p>\n
From the nationwide pool of club winners, the seven highest\u2011scoring pairs from each of the four handicap divisions will earn a coveted place in the National Final, held on the iconic Hotchkin Course at Woodhall Spa on August 12.<\/p>\n

In addition, all unsuccessful entries shall be entered into a ballot. One pair from each of the four handicap divisions shall be randomly drawn and be given a wildcard place into the National Final. A total of 64 players will then compete for national honours on one of the world\u2019s finest inland courses.<\/p>\n
As a proud partner of England Golf, and Tournament Sponsor, Titleist will present every finalist with a special prize to mark their achievement. Additional Titleist prizes will be awarded to the top three pairs at the National Final, recognising the outstanding four\u2011ball performances on the day.<\/p>\n
