Information
|
Formed in 1897,
the Club has hosted a number of prestigious
tournaments, including the Scottish Amateur
Championship, which returns for the eighth time to
Western Gailes in 2011, the 1972 Curtis Cup, the
1964 PGA Championship, and in 2007 was host to the
European Men's Amateur Team Championship. The
course is used for final qualifying when the Open
is played at Turnberry or Royal Troon, and also as
a final qualifying venue for the Seniors
Open.
This natural
links course offers undulating fairways,
occasionally interupted by three meandering burns.
Greens that are cleverly located in naturally
folded ground, some protected by burns whilst
others guarded by sand dunes. The course is highly
rated and is 35th in the Top 100 courses of the
British Isles.
The Clubhouse
sits proudly overlooking the links, with views
across the bay to the Isle of Arran beyond. The
perfect setting to relax after the challenge of our
famous course.
