Wimbledon wants neighboring golf club

Wimbledon already spills over to the golf club across the road, land it has the leasehold on.

But the Daily Mail says it’s thinking bigger

The newspaper says the AELTC has made an offer to buy out the leasehold (it expires in 2041; the club will own the land then) at double the £25 million offered in 2015.

One issue is that only 10-year members could get payouts. The other 300 members would get nothing and potentially no place to play, either

One plan for the land is to have the qualifying there, rather than off-site at Roehampton.
