New Course
____________________________________________
Almost 500 years passed before St Andrews built a second course. Situated next to the Old Course, the obvious name for it was the New.
Opened in April 1895, the New 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. Now ranked 38th in the Golf World rankings of courses in the UK, the New Course is often referred to as St Andrews' best kept secret.
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.
Par 71 6,625 yards.
