Trump Turnberry Resort in South Ayshire is home to the famous, century-old hotel overlooking the famous Ailsa Course, a regular host to the British Open. The Ailsa is most famous for its lighthouse by the ninth tee and the volcanic, Ailsa Craig rock that looms offshore.
The golf course was originally built at the same time as the hotel at the turn of the 20th century, but was plowed over during World War II and used as an airbase. Mackenzie Ross came in later and created a links course that has today become one of Scotland's most coveted. Trump Turnberry is also home to the championship Kintyre Course and nine-hole Arran.

I Recommend This Course
History, history, history
Played this as the second round of a 36-hole day.
The first three holes are tough, then Nos. 4-11 provide spectacular scenery and require demanding shots.
The ninth hole (the lighthouse hole) is worth whatever rate you pay to play. Beautiful.
Buddy of mine finished birdie-birdie-par to help us win our match and, while playing those holes, it's impossible not to think of Tom Watson in the 2009 British Open. Still can't believe he didn't win that thing!!!
