Turnberry - King Robert The Bruce

Following the success of the project to redesign and upgrade the Ailsa Course, Donald Trump and his son Eric focused on making the second course as good as it can be. The new title for the course reflects just how extensive the changes have been. The coastal stretch at the far end has been transformed by reversing the holes and producing green settings which are as good as any of those on the Ailsa. The 9th hole, playing all along the coast line is perhaps the most exciting hole which Turnberry has to offer, which is saying something considering the wealth of coastal holes which now exist at the resort.

There have also been major changes to the holes further inland with bare sand areas and wetlands replacing the rather claustrophobic gorse landscape over which the course used to play. The 18th green, located right beneath the clubhouse, has been redesigned to produce a great end to the round.
