Carnoustie Golf Course - 18 holes, 6941 yards, par
72 Championship Course Links
Golf has been played over the links at Carnoustie since the 1500s
but the present course came into being in 1850 when it was designed
by Alan Robertson of St Andrews. Some 20 years later the legendary
Old Tom Morris improved and extended the course to 18 holes and
in 1926 the famous architect James Braid redesigned the Championship
course extensively.
James Braids work
was universally acclaimed, but it was still felt that Carnoustie
Championship course had a weak finish. Prior to the 1937 Open
Championship the final 3 holes at Carnoustie were redesigned
by James Wright, a local man, and he produced what has come to
be regarded as the toughest finishing stretch in golf.
