Carnoustie & North East – Downfield – 6822 yds – Par 73

Downfield is recognised as one of the finest inland course in the United Kingdom. It has played host to many events over its long history. In the past tournaments like the SPGA Masters, Scottish Boys Strokeplay, PGA Scottish Open, Scottish Amateur, British Girls Home Internationals, but it was the great honour of being a Final Qualifying venue for the Open Championship at Carnoustie in 1999, that has put Downfield Golf Club rightly, near the top of the tree as a golfing destination. In 2001 Downfield will again play host to the Scottish Amateur matchplay from the 30th July to the 4th August with some of the countries brightest prospects on view.

Set in beautiful parkland, Dundee’s premier course is a challenge to every golfer teeing off at the wonderful 1st hole and moving round the rolling contours of the course. The wildlife on the course is breathtaking with foxes, squirrels, deer, water fowl, ducks and buzzards, as well as many other interesting species scampering around. With over 100 species of tree within the perimeter it is no wonder people remember their visit long after they have gone away.
