Dundonald - 9th June 2022
Today we were at Dundonald Links,
It didn’t take long for the Mizuno pairs golfers to sit up and take notice of this fine new Ayrshire Links!
When it comes to Golf in Scotland, Dundonald Links has quickly become “must play”. The Par 72 course, located at the very heart of Ayrshire, offers a classic links golf experience for all to savour.
Generous fairways, undulating greens and a wide choice of tees make it an enjoyable test for everyone that visits us.
As early as 2008, Dundonald was chosen as the venue for the first stage of the European Tour Qualifying School and it continued to host this important tournament until 2011.
In 2012, it was the turn of the Seniors to test their skills against Dundonald’s challenges when the course played host to Senior Opening Qualifying. The prestigious Boys Amateur Championship came to Dundonald Links in 2014, before the course welcomed some of the world’s best female golfers for the Aberdeen Asset Management Ladies Scottish Open in 2015, 2016 and 2017.
The arrival of The Aberdeen Asset Management Scottish Open in 2017 heralded a new chapter in Dundonald’s history. In recent years the Tour has taken this prestigious Championship to some iconic links courses across Scotland. Rafa Cabrera Bello claimed the title in stunning fashion after a brilliant final round 64 took him to a play off with Callum Shinkwin.
In 2021, in was announced that Dundonald Links is set be host of the 2022 Trust Golf Women’s Scottish Open as well as Final Qualifying for The Open from 2023.
The players rated this course “Top Class” and would love to see this course again on the list for golf pairs 2023!!!
Best shot was Paul Gilbey who striped a 6 iron off the 16th to put it to the nearest the pin to 4ft!!
Well done to Liz Keohone who put it to 6ft on the 12th par 3, from 172 yards with a 6 iron!! Very impressive..
