Turnberry - Ailsa

6,976 yards • par 70

A golfing jewel of the West Coast, Turnberry is the Pebble Beach of the British Isles.

Redesigned by Mackenzie Ross in the 1950s and ranked among the top 20 courses in the world it has been the host of three Opens in 1977, 1986, 1994 at which the winners were Watson, Norman and Price respectively.

This course is an unforgettable experience with magnificent panoramic views over Turnberry Bay to the Isle of Arran and Ailsa Craig. It is a challenging course with a wealth of strong and stirring holes which are all beautifully maintained

The most junior of Open venues, the Ailsa course at Turnberry is nevertheless one of the best and toughest challenges in championship golf.

Sited between the magnificent Westin Turnberry Resort and the sea, this great course weaves in and out of spectacular dunes that, with Turnberry lighthouse and Ailsa Craig standing over 1200 foot high out at sea, form great backdrops to all of the holes.

Although stretched to over 7,000 yards for Open Championships, the medal course is not one that demands great power for par but rather more care and attention to detail both off the tee and with the approach shots.

This course has seen some of the best exhibitions ever in the game, particularly over its closing holes testing the world’s greatest players to their limits.

With the famous hotel on your left, the magnificent Ailsa Craig away to your right and a whole new set of challenges ahead, there are few feelings in world golf to match those experienced at the first tee of the legendary Ailsa or highly acclaimed Kintyre course.
