St Andrews: the birthplace of golf, and the Royal and Ancient Club, which was created in 1754, has been the headquarters of golf ever since. Hosts the Open Championship almost every 5 years. St. Andrews also has a castle and a university, which is the oldest in Scotland, founded in 1412. Prince William is perhaps the university's most recent famous alumnus. Want to experience the essence of golf? Welcome to St Andrew's.
North Berwick: has played host to the sport of golf since the early 17th century onward. Only the residents of St. Andrews have played golf for a longer continuous stretch on the same piece of land. Widely acclaimed for its handful of “template” holes and features, it has inspired course architects and designers from all over the world, offering a mixture of drama, eccentricity, and fun to all of those who get to play on the links.
Royal Troon: the club is a mainstay of The Open Championship, and hosted one of the most exciting major finishes in recent memory: the 2016 “Duel at Troon” between Henrik Stenson and Phil Mickelson. The Open returns to Royal Troon in 2024 and the world of golf would be delighted to see a repeat of that dramatic Sunday.
