The Duke's Course was designed by five-time Open champion Peter Thomson CBE, and has been highly regarded since its opening in 1995. However, with Herb Kohler's recent takeover of the Old Course Hotel and the Duke's, there has been significant investment, designed to enhance both the layout and the drainage of the course.

Kohler plans to hold major professional events at the Duke's and the improvements reflect that desire. Played from the tips, this is the longest golf course in Scotland, and it represents the perfect accompaniment to the classic tracks at St Andrews Links.
It is a parkland course, but Kohler has toughened it up, especially the bunkering which is now reminiscent of his other venture, Whistling Straits in Wisconsin, which hosted the 2004 USPGA Championship.
Enjoying magnificent views down over the 'auld grey toon', The Duke's is a remarkable place to play a round at the spiritual home of golf and is a must when on a golf tour of St Andrews.
We used electric trolleys but soon realised there is a fair bit of walking to be done between holes, especially going from the 9th to the 10th tee. Keeps you fit!
Although the weather was nasty, we enjoyed our round because we had buggies and had no trouble playing the course.
The Dukes is a quality championship course , not the easiest golf course but a true test of golf . The course was in excellent condition , with the greens not quite at their best due to the time of year ( end of March ) A delight to play .
I have previously played the dukes and it was interesting to see the changes they have made to the course. The course has fantastic views over St Andrews
Lovely course just felt like it could be laid out a bit better. No signs for the next few box and a few tee boxes were near to others, causing confusion. Each hole played very well with the 17th being my favourite
