Did you know?

Lingan Golf Club was first established in 1895 at Victoria Park in Sydney, Nova Scotia. The club moved to a new site at Lingan Bay in 1909, and eventually to its current out-of-town home in 1913.

The original 9-hole layout was designed and constructed by Nova Scotia native and accomplished amateur golfer Malcolm Martin. In 1922, the legendary course architect Stanley Thompson redesigned the original 9-holes, while his protégé Robbie Robinson designed the second nine in 1964.
