GLENEAGLES PGA CENTENARY COURSE INFORMATION

Designed by the Golden Bear himself, Jack Nicklaus made sure Gleneagles PGA course was simply stunning to the eye as well as providing a stern test for all golfers. The course is simply fantastic in all weathers, mostly due to the sub-air system used to ensure the course is playable at all times – especially important in Central Scotland. The course itself offers fantastic views over to Ben Shee. The features on the PGA course is replicant of some US courses – with massive bunkers lining the fairways and major slopes around the greens. There is a major benefit to those who possess a good distance and the ability to hit a high ball flight into the greens.

The favourite holes on the PGA course are 14 and 15 – where there’s a couple of birdie chances if you can avoid being distracted by your surroundings. The back 9 definitely has a few chances for scoring if you can survive the front 9. By playing here, you can emulate Tommy Fleetwood who won the Johnie Walker Championship in 2013 which was his first PGA tour win. Even better if you can emulate his -18 score for 4 rounds.
