GREEN FEE: £140
DESIGNER: Harry Colt (1888)
DESCRIPTION: The only Irish course to have held an Open, this was Colt’s favourite design, and he had Pine Valley and Sunningdale on his portfolio. Fierce rough and small greens give it teeth; and the views over the Giant’s Causeway and Dunluce Castle make it hugely memorable.
