Designed to complement the tougher championship layouts at the Home of Golf, the Strathtyrum was opened in 1993. Although few in number (15), the bunkers are cunningly placed and there is considerable emphasis on iron play accuracy. The greens themselves are large and have slopes and burrows which can test even the most confident putters. Road From Edinburgh: Take the A90 over the Forth bridge which connects to the M90.
