The personal details of wealthy tycoons, sports stars and celebrities have been stolen in a cyber attack on England’s most prestigious golf club.
Wentworth’s membership database was stolen by “an unauthorised third party”, the golf club has admitted in an email sent out last week and seen by The Telegraph. The club has offered “our profuse apologies” for any worry or inconvenience.
