Lundin Golf Club 5

Lundin Golf Club is one of Scotland's most popular links golf courses. Located within 20 minutes of St Andrews, this picturesque links course meanders along the Fife coastline to provide a superb golfing challenge that has dated back to 1868.

Lundin was originally laid out by Tom Morris before extensively redesigned by five times Open Champion James Braid in 1909.

The par of 71 is one that is rarely beaten. The examination here is one that requires each golfer to navigate strategically placed burns, cavernous pot bunkers and have first-class course management. It isn't necessarily length that is key to scoring well at Lundin but a measured head and plenty of patience to play the course as it is presented in front of you.

Fine links fairways and excellent greens have ensured that it has been regularly selected as a final qualifying golf course for The Open Championship when it ventures to The Old Course at St Andrews.

With many great pubs and restaurants available within a short walk of Lundin Golf Club, golfers heading here for a tour of the great nearby links of Dumbarnie Links and Elie Golf Club are assured a memorable weekend of golf within this historic region.

Lundin Golf Club

Divided from Leven by the Mile Dyke, the opening stretch of holes heads west along the coast, providing magnificent views across the Firth of Forth towards Edinburgh, East Lothian and the towering Bass Rock. Unlike many traditional links, there is no easing into a round here; both the 1st and 4th are brutal par-4s when played into the prevailing westerly wind.

Not long by modern standards, Lundin is protected in other ways; out of bounds comes in to play on the majority of the holes, and the greens are guarded by devilish pot bunkers and burns. The signature hole may well be the glorious par-3 14th, where golfers turn towards the Forth and fire their tee shots from a steeply elevated tee. Turning short holes at right-angles to the majority of other holes is classic links course design, as it means that golfers must tackle the wind from all angles.

With the coastal cross-wind whipping furiously, standing atop the 14th tee at Lundin will strike fear into most. Add to all this the club has a fantastic reputation for its putting surfaces making Lundin a joy to play, no matter what season you visit.

USPGA professional Brad Faxon has said, "Lundin Links will always have a special place in my heart". This may be because he shot 63 in Open Qualifying at Lundin in 2000.
