The New Course

1895

Almost 500 years passed before St Andrews built a second course. The first became the Old Course and the second the New Course.

The layout was developed by ‘Old’ Tom Morris – winner of four Open Championships – and David Honeyman. Based on the traditional out and back routing, among its most famous features are its shared fairways and a double green at the 3rd and 15th holes.

Often referred to as St Andrews’ best kept secret, the New Course is one of the stars in the golf firmament, offering a classic links challenge that uses the natural features of the land to create a significant golfing experience.
