The Ayrshire course holds a special place in the golfing
history books, having been the venue for the first-ever Open
Championship back in 1860. It last staged an Open in 1925 but the
Americans in particular love Prestwick and its often unique test of
golf. The first tee sits beside Prestwick Station and the railway
line runs all the way down the right-hand side of the opening hole.
There are plenty of other holes where a score can come off the
tracks, though, the huge 'Cardinal Bunker' providing potential
trouble at the third and the 'Himalayas' having to be negotiated at
the 206-yard par-3 fifth.
