Trump International Golf Links
Trump International Golf Links, Scotland, is located on the dramatic northeast coast of Scotland, near Aberdeen. Opened in 2012, this luxury golf resort features a championship links course designed by the renowned golf architect Dr. Martin Hawtree. The course stretches across a magnificent stretch of coastline, embracing the natural contours, rugged dunes, and panoramic views of the North Sea, creating a stunning backdrop for what is widely regarded as one of the world's most challenging and visually captivating golf courses.
The course is a par-72, measuring over 7,400 yards from the championship tees, making it a true test of golf for players of all levels. Hawtree's design pays homage to the traditional Scottish links style, featuring deep pot bunkers, undulating fairways, and challenging greens, all set against the rugged natural beauty of the Aberdeenshire coastline. The strategic layout requires thoughtful shot selection, with the ever-changing coastal wind adding an extra layer of complexity to the round.
Notable holes on the Trump International Golf Links include the par-3 3rd, offering breathtaking views of the sea and a green perilously perched on the edge of the dunes, and the long par-4 14th, where accuracy is key to navigate the narrow fairway flanked by imposing dunes on either side. The 18th hole provides a memorable finish, a demanding par-5 that gives players a final challenge as they approach the clubhouse against the backdrop of the North Sea.
Trump International Golf Links, Scotland, is not just a golf course but a destination that offers an unforgettable experience, combining the challenge of links golf with the natural beauty of the Scottish coast. Its reputation as one of the premier golf destinations in the world is well-deserved, attracting golfers from across the globe to experience its unique challenges and breathtaking scenery.
