Good course. Not that many holes that were particularly memorable for me, but all of them were a consistent test and in good condition. Struggles to differentiate itself from its neighbouring courses (Old & Jubilee) but if you enjoy links golf and the history of the location then it's certainly worth playing and is a good test, and a nice one to 'tick off the list'.
Bordering the Old, The New Course is regarded by many as the best on the links, with some of the most famous holes in world golf.
After a gentle start, the New has many difficult driving holes, bordered tightly by huge banks of yellow-flowering gorse. Played into the teeth of a strong wind, the par-4 sixth is one of the toughest in St Andrews, while the par-3 ninth which skirts the Eden Estuary is a beast, often requiring a solid 3-wood.
