A Masterpiece by Seve Ballesteros

The Shire London holds a unique place in golf history as the only course in the UK designed by Seve Ballesteros. His visionary approach created a course that blends links, parkland, and water features, offering a challenge unlike any other.

A Championship Test for All Abilities

With a par of 72 and stretching 7,028 yards, The Shire London demands strategy, precision, and creativity. The signature S-shaped 18th hole, a nod to Seve himself, is a breathtaking finale to a world-class course.

A Layout Like No Other

Unlike traditional golf courses, The Shire features six par 3s, six par 4s, and six par 5s, a unique design that challenges every aspect of your game. Every hole requires careful shot selection, with water hazards and undulating greens ensuring a true test of skill.

A Course Built for Champions

Having hosted numerous elite tournaments, The Shire is regarded as one of London’s finest championship venues. Its challenging yet rewarding layout makes it a perfect battleground for the MGA Race to Makkah.

The Ultimate Test Awaits

A course designed by a legend deserves legendary performances. Will you take on the challenge and conquer The Shire?

Liwaa Cup

The Race to Makkah UK Series does not end when the final putt drops. It builds towards the Liwaa Cup, a fierce North vs South showdown that brings together the very best performers from the season. Only those who finish inside the top four of each division in the Race to Makkah standings will earn their place, forming two elite teams of twelve players. 

What follows is a fully hosted, complimentary, overnight experience and three rounds of match play featuring alternate shot, better ball pairs, and singles. Pride, regional rivalry, and the honour of lifting the Liwaa Cup await those who rise to the challenge.

FAQs

  • Absolutely not! The MGA welcomes players from all backgrounds, faiths, and nationalities. Our events are held in line with Islamic values, meaning no alcohol or gambling and full prayer arrangements. We ask all participants to respect these guidelines.

  • No, an official handicap is not required to participate. However, to be eligible for the main prize—an all-expenses-paid trip to compete in the World Final & Golf Umrah—players must have an official WHS handicap and have played at least six official competitions between 18th April 2025 and 30th April 2026.

    For the 2026 series, participation in the main competition is limited to players with an official WHS handicap (handicaps are capped at 21).

    If you have not played a sufficient number of qualifying competition rounds to hold a valid handicap, you are still welcome to participate in the day’s competition. However, your score will not be eligible to count towards the Race to Makkah standings.

    Additionally, your participation in this division will count toward your six required rounds for the 2026 series.

  • No. Each event has individual winners, but to be crowned Race to Makkah Champion, your best three scores will count towards the final ranking. The more you play, the higher your chances.
