The golf course is hard, but it’s fair. It’s a fantastic test

Golf has been played over the links at Carnoustie since the 1500’s but its design and layout have changed over the years thanks to Old Tom Morris and legendary architect James Braid.

With the Barry Burn easing its way through the final 3 holes, quietly awaiting the shot that is slightly less than perfect, it’s rightly regarded as having the hardest finishing stretch of all Open Championship courses.
