Herbert Charles Tippet
Herbert Charles Coningsby Tippet (1892–1947) was a leading British amateur golfer, golf club administrator, and golf course architect in the years between the wars. A former Reserve army officer, Tippet was for a time a close associate of millionaire American property developer Carl G. Fisher, the man who created the Miami Beach, Florida resort, for whom he designed a number of golf courses in Florida and Long Island. He was one of the most successful British amateur golfers of the 1920s and 1930s and later served as secretary at a number of prestigious UK golf clubs. His wife was the grandmother of Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall.
== Early life ==
Herbert Charles Coningsby Tippet M.C. (he preferred to be known as Charles and rarely used his third name)〔The correct spelling of his surname was Tippet but it was frequently misspelt, even in official publications, as Tippett. England and Wales Birth Index, Q1 1892 Newport, vol.11a, p.209〕 was born in Newport, Gwent, in 1892 into a family originally from the south-west of England, and brought up in Bristol〔1901 Census of England and Wales. Surname incorrectly spelt as Tippett.〕 and Sudbury, Suffolk; the son of a retired Lieutenant-Colonel turned surveyor, Conservative Party agent and keen amateur golfer. Tippet's father, who had served in the Second Boer War, re-enlisted at the outbreak of the First World War and was later killed while serving at Gallipoli.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.sudburysuffolk.co.uk/greatwar/profile.asp?id=532 )〕 He had been the founder and first captain of (Newton Green Golf Club ) in Sudbury.
The middle child and only son in a family of three, Charles Tippet acquired two things from his father; a lifelong interest in the British Army and an outstanding ability to play golf. It had always been understood that Tippet would follow his father into the army. Whilst at private school, he served in the Army Cadet Force and was commissioned into the Territorial Force when it absorbed the Cadet Force in 1908, being commissioned on 27 November 1908 as a Second Lieutenant in the 5th (Territorial) Battalion of the Suffolk Regiment based at Bury St. Edmunds.〔''London Gazette'', 22 December 1908〕
