About the course
It’s been over 400 years since golf was first played on the Links course at Monifieth, and in that time we’ve created two fantastic courses that can be enjoyed by all levels of golfer from seasoned professionals to enthusiastic amateurs.
Tom Watson played his first links golf at Monifieth the week before he won his first Open at Carnoustie, and is now an honorary season ticket holder. Jean Van de Velde was the top qualifier on our medal course in 1999 when he came very close to winning the Open.
Our Medal course was used as a qualifying venue for the Seniors Open Championship in 2016 and for the world famous R&A Junior Open in 2022. The course is widely recognised as an excellent example of a championship links course on the East Coast. With railways, meandering mountains, heather, ravines, undulating fairways and sand hills to contend with, golf is never dull. The 6655 y. course from the back tees is a tough but fair links challenge.
