Gleneagles (King's)

Number 14. Played Spring 2012. Moorland course designed by James Braid.
Gleneagles is one of Scotland's premier golfing facilities. The hotel has 3 courses but it is the King's course that is the highest ranked. It isn't as long as the PGA course but it is the toughest test of the 3. It is a classic Braid design with some clever routing. Gleneagles can sometimes be a tad heavy underfoot due to the soil but the greens are usually excellent. Added to a wonderfully challenging course is a worldclass clubhouse, there are few better places to play golf in Scotland.
