Prestwick Golf Club

Ayrshire, Scotland


BY GARY LISBON

Prestwick is golf royalty. It was founded in 1851 and lies adjacent to Royal Troon along a stretch of Ayrshire coastline as famous as any in the world for the game. It was here in 1860 where the first Open Championship was won by Willie Park 2 shots clear of Tom Morris. Prestwick would gone on to host 24 Open Championships (the last in 1925) plus 11 Amateur Championships, the most recent in 2001. Today, Prestwick is a thrilling 6,551 yard par 71 throwback. It stands tall for all who believe that the essence of golf has and always will be how the ball reacts along the ground. The holes now in play, including six of Old Tom's original greens, have been so for more than 90 years with only tees being pushed back. Especially memorable are the steeply pitched back to front green at the eighth and the wicked left to right side slope at the ninth green. The fifth is a 230 yard blind par three. Be prepared to be amazed and make sure you take time to explore the clubhouse.
