Information
|
Very few golf
courses, no matter how old or grand, have the
heritage Turnberry does. The terrain
itself—the rolling hills and hidden bunkers of
its grass-covered sand dunes—demanded to be
played even before a formal course was built.
This land, which
“links” the sea to the surrounding
patches of farmland, is one of the most storied
links courses in Scotland. Just seven years after
its first man-made course opened, Turnberry hosted
its first professional tournament, and the course
has since seen some of the sport’s most
memorable matches. For those to whom golf is a
religion, Turnberry is a cathedral.
