The Rambagh Golf Club is a picturesque course strategically located. A game of golf here will transport you into the bygone days as you catch glimpses of the Rambagh Palace Hotel, The Moti Doongari and Nahargarh Forts and the Birla Planetarium. The origins of the Rambagh Golf Club date back to October 1944.
Rajmata Gayatri Devi of Jaipur is the founder and was the life-long captain of the club. After she returned from Gulmarg in October 1944 from a holiday where she got keen on playing golf, she requested the permission of the late king to lay a course on the Rambagh Palace grounds for which he readily agreed. With the help of seasoned golfers, an interesting course was laid out. The Fairways were rough and full of burrs that would stick to players’ shoes and socks, the browns were true and good. More and more people wanted to learn to play golf and so Mr. H. Duckworth, a professional from Kolkata, was invited to coach them.
