Information

There is no real understanding of when golf was first played over the grounds that now constitute the Old Course. The earliest written evidence was a licence issued in 1552, which permitted the community to rear rabbits on the links and "play at golf, futball, schuteing ... with all other manner of pastimes." The first written record of golf being played at the Old Course dates to 1574, which would make the Old Course the fifth-oldest links golf site in Scotland.

Carnoustie Golf Course

Carnoustie golf course printThe Old Course at Carnoustie is the oldest golf course in the world. The Old Course is a public course over common land in Carnoustie, Fife, Scotland and is held in trust by The Carnoustie Links Trust under an act of Parliament. The Royal and Ancient Golf Club of Carnoustie (R&A) club house sits adjacent to the first tee, although it is but one of many clubs that have playing privileges on the course, along with the general public. On some Sundays, the course turns into a park for all the townspeople who come out to stroll, picnic and otherwise enjoy the grounds
