Tee Off in Scotland » Royal Dornoch Championship

6,514 yards • par 70

Formed in 1877, Dornoch has now been a Royal club for over 100 years! A Royal title means exceptional standards and they always aim to exceed the expectations of their frequent visitors and loyal members. However, they aim to do this in a relaxed, informal environment, with an emphasis on traditional highland hospitality.

Records show that the incredible natural landscape that defines golf in Dornoch has hosted golfers since 1616 and they are proud that the tradition has continued into the 21st century.

The responsibility for actually designing the Championship course fell to the legendary Old Tom Morris who used the unique links-land features to create a magical golfing experience – one that prompted Tom Watson, five times Open Champion, to say “it’s the most fun I’ve ever had on a golf course!”

Over the years the Championship course has been tweaked and enhanced. Open Champion, George Duncan added new holes after the war ensuring that the course has remained a challenge in the face of ever improving equipment and continues to be regularly ranked within the top 15 best courses in the world.

And it’s not just the Championship course that benefits from the challenges that links-land throws up. The recent addition of five new holes on the Struie have transformed this course into one that still maintains its role as an enjoyable and entertaining course for the whole family, but one that tests even the lower handicap player.
