The PGA® Centenary Course, created by Jack Nicklaus, is a modern classic and Host Venue of The 2014 Ryder Cup.
Even for a champion and acclaimed golf architect like Nicklaus, The PGA Centenary Course was a challenge. It had to be a great golf course and Nicklaus described it as "The finest parcel of land in the world I have ever been given to work with."
The tees are graded at each hole in five stages, including a challenging 6,757 yards from the white markers down to 5,271 from the red.
A feature of the PGA Centenary Course is the feast of views of the spectacular countryside in which Gleneagles is set.
The King's Course, opened in 1919, is a masterpiece of golf course design, which has tested the aristocracy of golf, both professional and amateur.
James Braid's plan for the King's Course was to test even the best players' shot-making skills over the eighteen holes.
Selecting the right club for each approach shot is the secret on the King's. It is certainly one of the most beautiful and exhilarating places to play golf in the world, with the sweeping views from the tees all around, the rock-faced mountains to the north, the green hills to the south, and the peaks of the Trossachs and Ben Vorlich on the western horizon.
The natural beauty of the Queen's has played host to some of the world's golfing greats.
The beautiful settings and the challenge of the golf course have attracted such top golfers as Johnny Miller, Greg Norman, Seve Ballesteros, Tom Watson, and Lee Trevino, as well as great names from the entertainment and sports worlds including Sean Connery, Burt Lancaster, Bing Crosby, Jackie Stewart, and astronaut Alan Shepard (the only man to hit a golf shot on the moon).
The Queen's golf course offers lovely woodland settings, lochans and ditches as water hazards.
This 9-hole golf course evolved from the delightfully named "Wee Course", the PGA® National Academy Course offers a great test and enjoyment for golfers at every level.
It is the perfect golf course to learn to play the game and combined with the facilities at the PGA National Golf Academy at Gleneagles it is Scotland`s leading venue to accomplish your golfing goals.
