Jack Nicklaus describes the Gleneagles Centenary course as "The finest parcel of land in the world I have ever been given to work with".
From the back tees, the PGA Centenary Course is the longest inland course in Scotland. The tees are however graded at each hole in five stages, including a challenging 6,558 yards from the white markers down to 5,072 from the red.
A feature of the PGA Centenary Course is the feast of views of the spectacular countryside in which Gleneagles is set - a scene which will become more familiar to golfers worldwide when the Centenary course hosts the Ryder Cup in 2008.
