The original back nine of the Old Links known as the Coastguard Holes are now played as a separate nine hole course beginning and finishing at the practice ground. Running to just under 7,000 yards off the championship markers the Strand and Valley nines which now make up the Old Tom Morris Links are a testing combination of traditional and modern links holes which bridge a century of golf design influences.
Sandy Hills Golf Course
18 holes
7255y
6634m
Par 71
Designed by Pat Ruddy
Sandy Hills is in many ways the ideal of a modern links. Intended for the serious golfer, its narrow fairways appear constricting from the tee, but the landing areas sculpted from the dunes are deceptively wide. Measuring a hefty 7,255 yards from the tips, Sandy Hills was designed with championship play in mind. However dont allow this to deter you, with a multiplicity of tees there is a length to suit all strengths.
