The Ailsa and Arran (now Kintyre) courses at Turnberry were rescued from near extinction and redesigned by golf architect Mackenzie Ross in the 1950's. Since then it has hosted many amateur and professional championships. The Ailsa hosted Turnberry's first Open championship in 1977. That championship saw Jack Nicklaus and Tom Watson go head-to-head to produce one of the greatest final days in Open history. Turnberry has never looked back and is now regularly ranked in the top 20 in the world. Watson in '77, Norman in '86 and Price in '94...all testimony to Turnberry's greatness.

The Kintyre Course (the old Arran Course) has been totally redesigned by the esteemed golf architect Donald Steel. This exciting new links course features fantastic scenary guaranteeing magnificent ocean holes which offer undulating greens, tight tee shots and pot bunkers. Indeed, it is a serious rival to the Ailsa, with some claiming that it is even more challenging than its famous counterpart.
