West Kilbride Golf Club is one of Scotland's great links
treasures but is less well known to the wider golfing world than it
deserves to be. Here there are spectacular and memorable views
across the Firth of Clyde to the Isle of Arran and beyond to the
Mull of Kintyre. It is a course that has twice benefited from the
architectural hand of James Braid. The five-times Open Champion
made alterations to the original Old Tom Morris nine-hole layout in
1914. He returned in 1923 after the Open Championship at Troon and
left the club with further improvement plans which were completed
two years later. Today this remains the layout so much enjoyed by
members and visitors alike.
