Carnoustie Championship
Carnoustie’s Championship Course is one of the world's most revered and challenging golf courses. Established in 1839, the original 10-hole course designed by Allan Robertson has evolved with contributions from legends like Old Tom Morris and James Braid.
Carnoustie, often called "Carnasty," stretches over 7,400 yards, with narrow fairways, strategic bunkers, and unpredictable Scottish weather. The 18th hole, "Home," is particularly notorious, featuring the Barry Burn, demanding precision and nerve.
The course has hosted The Open Championship eight times, with historic moments such as Ben Hogan's only Open victory in 1953 and Paul Lawrie's dramatic playoff win in 1999 after Jean van de Velde's collapse.
Carnoustie offers a quintessential links experience with firm, fast fairways and undulating greens. For golfers seeking to test their skills on a course that has challenged the best, Carnoustie remains a must-play destination, blending rich history with relentless challenge.
