GOLF IN THE NEWS

The R&A have announced that Turnberry will host the 2009 Open Championship from 16th-19th July. It will be the fourth time the Ayrshire course has staged the event since it was added to the Open roster in 1977. That year will always will be remembered for the 'Duel in the Sun' between Tom Watson and Jack Nicklaus, eventually won by Watson by a single shot. Greg Norman won in 1986 thanks largely to a second-round 63 after opening with a 74, while Nick Price won in 1994 after a great battle with Jesper Parnevik.  mcleanscotland can arrange packages for you to coincide with this superb golfing event.

PHOTOS AND STORY FROM A 2007 TOUR ...

A great tour with these guys from the States, even though we booked the whole tour and only spent several days with them, we felt like we knew them so well by this stage, here is Liz and pal Janice sharing a drink with them at our local pub in Broughty Ferry, September 2007.

NEWS;  6 OCT 2007. Scots-made club holes out at £89,000 A SCOTTISH-made golf club has fetched a record-breaking £89,577 at auction. The 18th century long-nosed putter, attributed to Leith clubmaker and former caddie, Andrew Dickson, was sold by Sotheby's in New York. A collection of 11 antique St Andrews-made golf clubs also earned more than £60,000. They were designed by two of golf's most illustrious names - "Old" Tom Morris Sr and Hugh Philp. The sale of the Scottish clubs was part of a larger lot - the Jeffrey B Ellis Antique Golf Club Collection - which fetched more than £1 million in total when it went under the hammer. It was the largest collection of golf memorabilia to come up for auction in recent times.

 

news;  Congratulations to Pardraig from mcleanscotland golf!  If a Scot could not win the 2007 Open, we are so pleased an Irishman did!  Padraig Harrington  A superb last round of four under par 67 took Padraig into a play-off with Sergio Garcia for the Open Championship. But in a dramatic finish Garcia lipped out for par and a four hole play-off ensued. Padraig played class golf to leave himself with a four foot putt for the title. He holed it to become the first Irishman to win the title in 60 years and has now won all three play-offs he has contested this year. And talking of Irish ...

Jack Nicklaus plans new golf resort on Stonehaven estate.  JULY 2007 NEWS. A NEW golf course designed by Jack Nicklaus would form the centrepiece of a £40 million hotel and resort development unveiled yesterday.  Edinburgh-based FM Developments announced that Ury Estate in Stonehaven is to become home to only the second Jack Nicklaus signature golf course in Scotland. The "Golden Bear's" PGA Centenary course at Gleneagles, which opened in 1993, has already been recognised as a modern classic. It has also been chosen as the venue for the 2014 Ryder Cup. Mr Nicklaus last night said: "Ury Estate is a fantastic landscape that commands great views across the surrounding countryside and out to the North Sea, offering us a wonderful opportunity to design a memorable golf experience. "The area is immersed in Scottish history and we are honoured to be a part of its golf future. We look forward to the challenge of blending the golf course design with its surroundings, and hope to create a beautiful course that will highlight the incredible Scottish scenery." The 18-hole Nicklaus championship course will be the flagship of FM Developments' plans to transform the 1,500-acre Ury Estate on the outskirts of Stonehaven into a massive leisure complex with a hotel, shooting range, tennis courts and equestrian and fishing facilities.

The proposal comes on the back of Donald Trump's plans for a £1 billion development at Menie in Aberdeenshire and reinforces hopes of establishing the North-east of Scotland as a golfing Mecca.
