Portstewart
Golf Club
A claim is often made that Portstewart has the best opening
hole in Irish Golf - some say in the world. Situated on Ulster's
magnificent Causeway Coast, Portstewart Golf Club is one of
the very few 45 hole complexes in Europe. Going back to 1951,
when the course was used as a qualifying venue for the Open
Championship at Royal Portrush, it seemed that Portstewart was
destined to be forever cast in the shadow of its more illustrious
neighbour. Not any more. Everything changed when the new championship
layout of the Strand Course hosted the Irish Close Championship
in 1992. |

Royal
Portrush Golf Club
Simply put, the Dunluce course at Royal Portrush is one of the
world's finest links courses and the only course in Ireland
to have hosted the British Open. Overlooked by the ruins of
the 13th Century Dunluce Castle it is a masterpiece of golf
architecture. Famous for its magnificent turf and excellent
holes, many of which require long and accurate drives made all
the more difficult by the high winds. Unimaginable rough and
tricky greens, thrown with windy conditions make this course
an admirable test for a seasoned golfer. |

Ballyliffen
- Old Links
Nick Faldo visited Ballyliffin in June 1993 and described The
Old Links as the most natural golf course he had ever seen.
The Old Links is a classically old fashioned links. It oozes
charm, character and curiosity. More than anything, it is the
extraordinary terrain that makes a game on the Old Links such
a unique experience: stand on any tee and the fairway ripples
and tumbles in each and every direction. The principal architect
of the links was of course, Mother Nature.

Ballyliffen
- Glashedy Links
Described as "The Ballybunion of the North" Ballyliffen is Ireland's
most northerly links and comprises 365 acres of spectacular
dune land, surrounded by rolling hills and mountains with the
Atlantic Ocean as its western boundary. Glashedy Links opened
for play in August 1995 and its location on the north western
Atlantic Coast makes it a magnificent setting. Designed by Pat
Ruddy and Tom Craddock, it has been laid out on predominantly
higher ground above and beyond the Old Links. The challenge
presented by the Glashedy Links is almost as formidable as it
is exhilarating. |
