Prestwick definitely has one of the best opening tee shots in all of golf.
OB down the right line with the railway, unusual shape to the fairway, and heavy wind usually coming off the water to the left.
Gets the heart racing from the opening swing!

James Ogilvy Fairlie would be very proud!

Clubhouse Redevelopment 2025
Work has begun on a significant redevelopment to the upstairs area of our iconic Clubhouse to elevate it to world-class standards. While this space will be closed throughout the 2025 season, full food and beverage service will continue downstairs.
Visitors are welcome to enjoy drinks in the Smoke Room and meals in the Dining Room, both of which sit at the heart of the Club. During the renovation period, the dress code in these spaces will be relaxed, with golf attire permitted.
We look forward to unveiling the refurbished Clubhouse in time for our 175th anniversary celebrations next year.
