Club description

Founded in 1878 by a few enthusiasts Royal Troon Golf Club has outgrown its purely local reputation and is now known as one of the finest championship courses in the world.

One of the great links courses in Scotland, the Old Course is a challenging test of golfing ability. With the wind to contend with, and deep rough interspersed with gorse and broom, accurate shot making is essential.

Players should make their scores on the outward nine, as the prevailing north-westerly wind can make the back nine extremely difficult. Venue of The Open Championship
