The Club was inaugurated in February 1928, by Prince Louis II of Monaco in the presence of many royals. Among them? King Gustav V of Sweden, the Duke of Connaught, Prince Nicholas of Greece, Grand Duchess Helen and Grand Duke Andrew of Russia. Ten months later, it was renamed “The Monte-Carlo Country Club”.
Thanks to the Butler family, the Club is regaining its former dynamism and appeal. Gloria Butler, the daughter of Mr. George Pierce Butler, worked for the club and organised its tournaments until the 1970s. Then, in 1972, at the request of Prince Rainier, Princess Antoinette agreed to become President of the Club. In fact, his daughter Baroness Elizabeth-Ann de Massy was the vice-president until 2008. Thus, from 1972 to 2020, Baroness Elizabeth-Ann de Massy worked tirelessly, her commitment unwavering, to develop the Club and build its reputation.
