Sir Evelyn Wallers (1876-1934), who obtained the land upon which the fourth hole is located, was three times president of the Transvaal Chambers of Mines.
Eric Sturgess, who won two Wimbledon titles and was SA Tennis Singles champion eleven times joined the club in 1954 and the club became a second home for him - he recently passed and in his memory, the bridge closest to the green on the 3rd hole will be restored and contain a plaque bearing his name.
Springbok golfer Dave Symons joined the club in 1953, and was club champion on no less than 16 occasions, also winning one of the club's four major competitions in five successive decades. He represented South Africa 15 times, and won the SA Amateur in 1967.
Bobby Locke joined the club in 1936 after winning both the SA Amateur and the SA Open at Parkview in 1935. Parkview became his adopted home, and he played at the club right up until his passing. The Memorial Bridge at the 13th hole keeps the memory of South Africa's master alive.
Parkview has always had a very strong ladies section, and the roll of honour includes names such as Jenny Nellmapius, Felecity Jameson, Cheran Gerber, Joy Maree, Pam Breval, Leslie Dwyer and Barbara Allison. More recently, Laurette Maritz played out of Parkview in her days as a Springbok before turning professional.
Parkview Golf Club has become legendary for its spirit and camaraderie, and has developed a reputation for being a wonderfully friendly (watering hole).
