| What
can you say about the legend that is Carnoustie Championship
course? The current course has been sculpted by various architects
since the initial creation of a 10 hole course in 1842. Since
the last alterations by James Braid, in the 1920's the course
has not changed. It remains today, as tough a challenge as it
ever was. |
| |
 |
|
The
course has regularly been voted the best
links in the World, so what makes it so special?
It could be the fact that no two holes face the
same direction! With winds coming in from the
sea I am sure you appreciate how hard it is to
maintain your swing! |
|
| |
| The
burns that snake their way around the course create many
problems, as witnessed by Van De Velde in the '99 Open!
And lastly, its an incredibly long course. From the back
tee's the course can be stretched to over 7400 yards,
with tight fairways and |
heavy
rough the course demands that you think carefully
about your shots.
Overall,
an awsome course that has been played by so many
of the
golfing greats. Handle it with respect and you will
be fine. |
