St. Andrews Links: The Castle Course

The Castle course at St. Andrews is the newest addition to the Home of Golf, having opened in 2008 after the St. Andrews Trust acquired land closeby to its Torrance and Devlin courses. David McLay Kidd was tasked with designing a new course on this sacred land along a rugged cliff-top with spectacular views over St. Andrews. McLay Kidd and his team shaped this land to appear like the rolling dunescapes have always draped this land, though it was mostly featureless and flat before the Castle course was created.
