Thousands visit the country every year to experience and explore the difficulties and delights of the greatest courses in the world, and most make the pilgrimage to St Andrews, where the game was first played in the fifteenth century. No matter how good, golfers never believe they have really played the game until they have attempted to master the subtle intricacies of at least one of ScotlandOs rich variety of courses, be it St Andrews or the other Open Championship venues of Carnoustie, Muirfield, Turnberry or Royal Troon. Or the beautiful Royal Dornoch, Gleneagles or Loch Lomond. Or any other of ScotlandOs golfing gems.
