The Castle Course
St Andrews, Scotland
BY RUSSELL KIRK
When the Castle Course opened in 2008, it was the first new golf course built for the St Andrews Links Trust in over 100 years and the first ever outside of town. Scotsman architect David McLay Kidd, creator of Bandon Dunes, transformed featureless farmland with more than a mile of clifftop waterfront 2 miles east of city center into a 'modern links' comparable to Kingsbarns and Castle Stuart. The setting is striking with wonderful views of St Andrews plus a collection of seaside holes played along, around and over the cliffs. The holes on each nine play up from the clubhouse to higher ground before gliding back down to the sea. The feature hole is No. 17, a three par played across a ravine requiring a do or die swing where anything short or right is gone. A caddie is well worth your employ at the Castle Course if for no other reason than your tee shots: the line you want is seldom the one you see.
