The New Course is Jack Nicklaus's tribute and homage to the famed Old Course at St. Andrews, Scotland. This Scottish links-style masterpiece is complete with double greens, stone bridges and walls, gorse mounds, burns, and pot bunkers! The course even replicates the white railings that frame the first and eighteenth holes of the Old Course. Many of the holes are designed to recreate holes in St Andrews - although not necessarily in the same order of play.

Water comes into play on the first, as you cross the “swilken burn”, and on the very challenging number 10. Very few trees are located within the interior of the course, creating room, and also a remarkable similarity to playing on the links at St Andrews. The starter and staff at Grand Cypress also join in with tradition by wearing tartan plus-4’s as standard attire!
