A Motherwell golf club has announced its immediate closure. Torrance Park Golf Club confirmed it has closed its doors after “loss making over a number of years”. A statement on the club’s website said: “For a significant period of time the Torrance Park Golf Club has been experiencing challenges to being able to run as a profitable business.”
“Unfortunately, it has been loss making for a number of years and has reached a point where this cannot continue. We have therefore undertaken a review in relation to the sustainability of the club, to look at whether or not it is viable to continue operating into the future. As a result of this review, in which we looked at all possible options, we have identified that there is no alternative other than the closure of the club and as such the golf club and clubhouse will close with effect from 1st October 2024.”
Opened in 2009, the course – which had links to former Rangers FC owner Sir David Murray – was originally designed by Dave Thomas, joining Spey Valley and Cardrona as the Scottish venues crafted by the renowned golf course architect. The course was reduced to nine holes in 2023.
