Scotscraig is the 13th oldest golf club in the world, established in 1817. It is a championship course designed under the guidance of Old Tom Morris and James Braid which is conveniently located 15 minutes from the famous Old Course in St Andrews. The golf course serves as the final qualifying round for The Open Championship; it is worth a round when visiting the Kingdom of Fife and Tayport. Other golf courses in the area include Ladybank, Crail Balcomie and St Andrews Links Castle Course, as well as the new Dumbarnie Links.
Golf Course Information
A unique mix of heathland and links, the course is a six-time former Open Qualifier venue which provides all-year round golf for members and visitors due to the quality of the sand-based turf. With 18 unique holes laid out in a traditional loop set-up, the course has hosted prestigious tournaments such as the Scottish Seniors Championship in 2002, the Ladies Home Internationals in 2013 and the Scottish Boys and Girls Amateur Championships in 2017. Scotscraig is a test of accuracy rather than length and it will reward the player who plans each stroke with the next one in mind.
The large rolling greens and well-positioned bunkers will present a serious challenge to all golfers, as will wayward shots, with many fairways lined with dense gorse and bracken. It is described by Justin Rose as a “great course, great greens and very friendly”. Scotscraig was used as a qualifying course for the British Seniors Open in July 2018, The Open being held at The Old Course, St Andrews.
