St. Andrews - ST ANDREWS BAY – TORRANCE 7026 yards – par 72

The Torrance Course, designed by the late Gene Sarazen and winning Ryder Cup Captain, Sam Torrance, is a par 72, 7037 yard course that sweeps its way round the hotel and down to the coastal edge. The signature hole is the 17th, a par 4, 452 yards from the championship tee named 'Sam's favourite'.

After playing your way down to the rugged cliff edge the hole meanders its way back towards the bay, with the medieval skyline of St Andrews in the distance. With the sea and the out of bounds on the right and a menacing bunker on the left of your landing area, all that's left is the second shot, 210 yards normally into the prevailing wind with a 70 foot gorge running along the front of the green, two good putts and you've made par!
