The Callers of Newcastle was a golf tournament on the European Tour in 1977 named after its sponsor, the Callers department store. It was held at Whitley Bay Golf Club in Whitley Bay, England.[1]

The tournament was won by South Africa's John Fourie, who defeated Peter Butler, Ángel Gallardo and Tommy Horton in a four way playoff. The playoff started at the 16th hole. Butler and Horton bogeyed the first extra hole and Fourie won at the next after he made a par 3,[2]
