Carnoustie Golf Links (Championship Course)
Carnoustie's illustrious history is one of golf's most well-known, as it is widely regarded as the world's most difficult golf course. However, don't let this ominous reputation deter you; Carnoustie is still a breathtaking course that should be on every golfer's bucket list.
Walking through Carnoustie's undulating fairways, you can sense the history of the course, which has shaped golfing legends for decades. Carnoustie has remained one of the top-ranked courses in the UK and the globe, having hosted eight Open Championships, and has become even more famous as the location of Francesco Molinari's epic Open victory in 2018.
Carnoustie Golf Links has received significant redevelopment in recent years, with the Buddon course being one of the main beneficiaries. As a result, there are now three excellent courses to choose from during your visit, each of which is an excellent complement to a tour of the Dundee area.
