History and traditions

On June 15, 1633, Louis XIII acquired the 75 hectare estate of Fourqueux to donate it to his doctor, Charles Bouvard. During the years that followed, the estate remained the property of the successors of the King's “tapper”.
In 1923, with the exception of Villa Colin and the 1.5 hectare land kept by Charles and Marie Marret, the area until then operated by a farmer, was leased to a circle to create a golf course. Léon Visinet, member of the Automobile Club d'Ile de France, presides over the creation of the Golf & Tennis Club of Marly & Fourqueux.
The course was officially inaugurated on October 29, 1924. The golf course hosted international championships and Arnaud Massy established a course record there. With the war, the Fourqueux golf course ceased its activity on May 1, 1940. During the war, the area was used by German forces. Then it becomes again a property intended for the breeding of race horses.
In 1959, the announced closure of a golf course located in the town of Marly led a group of players to search for a nearby site to recreate a golf course.

The past and the beauty of the site appeal to the founding committee. The domain of Fourqueux is selected. On an area of ​​75 hectares, it was decided to revive a golf course by making 27 holes in a green setting. The course is designed by Lou Petitt and Hawtree is supervising the work. The ground is modeled. 26 trees and shrubs are planted. The golf course was inaugurated on May 000, 11.
