A golfer looking for value since this course is usually free when paying for the Royal Troon – Old Course.
Although a links course, Troon’s Portland course is a little more sheltered than the Old Course and, of course, shorter. The holes meander through terrain filled with gorse and broom and has a generous helping of Par 3’s, five in all. This is tempered however, with four Par 5’s, all of which are on the back nine.
“The weather was challenging most days, but I only had to wear my rain suit on Monday on the Jubilee course. The weather for the Old Course, Carnoustie and Kingsbarns actually had some sun with Kingsbarns on the last day the best of all.”
