The course at Grangemouth was opened in 1974 making it one of the youngest in Scotland. Since then the course has played host to numerous PGA events, an indication of how highly it is rated among officials and, indeed, players. There is no doubt that this is one of the best municipal courses in Scotland. With holes such as the long par three seventh over the water, the superb dogleg eighth and the challenging final hole, it will test the best.

Grangemouth, which is always superbly maintained thereby remains in great year-round condition, is clearly a course which you have to think your way round.
