Muirfield Golf

Par: 71 Length: 7245 yards Course designer: Old Tom Morris Venue: Open Championship

Muirfield is a renowned host to major championships - eleven Amateur Championships have been played over the course and 15 Open Championships. With the exception of the Championship tees, the course has changed little since 1936. In 2008 however, in conjunction with the Royal and Ancient Golf Club of St Andrews, golf architect Martin Hawtree was commissioned to advise the Club on how best to ensure Muirfield remains a challenge to the world’s great golfers. As a result, some amendments are being made before the next Open Championship scheduled to be played in 2013. The ethos of golf for the Club (The Honourable Company of Edinburgh Golfers) is two-ball match play on Muirfield, either singles or foursomes, other forms being discouraged but permitted on occasion. Among the most memorable rounds at Muirfield was Nick Faldo’s march of 18 straight pars to defeat Paul Azinger to the his first Open in 1988. More recently, Ernie Els captured his only Open Championship at Muirfield in 2002. For many golfers worldwide, Muirfield offers the ultimate golfing experience.

North Berwick

Par: 71 Length: 6420 yards

The North Berwick Golf Club is the thirteenth oldest in the world, founded in 1832 by a group of local landowners and gentlemen, among them a soldier who fought in Napoleon's final defeat at Waterloo. A list of past captains on the wall in the clubhouse proudly displays a distinguished past - Knights, Earls, Lords, Marquis and a former British Prime Minister, A.J.Balfour! Used as an Open Championship qualifying course when the Open is at Muirfield, North Berwick has the reputation as being a real shot maker's course. Not the longest of layouts but testing all the same. Excellent view from the links right over to Fife on a clear day.

Gullane I

Par: 71 Length: 6466 yards Venue: British Open Qualifying

Gullane I is a great test of links golf with smooth, fast greens, pot bunkers and an almost ever present sea breeze. There are glorious views out over the Firth of Forth as the beautifully maintained, rolling fairways wind their way out along the coast. The wind makes shot selection challenging and rewards the creative golfer. The course was established in 1884 and has played host to Open Championship Final Qualifying.

Archerfield Links – Dirleton

On coastal land that has hosted golf for over 100 years, DJ Russell has created the 18 holes of the Dirleton Links.
