The host of the 1981 Ryder Cup – when America fielded arguably the greatest side in its history – it has maintained a link with the professional game through hosting of US Open qualifying. At first glance the Old appears fairly open but spray your tee shots wide of the fairway and your ball will be gobbled up by dense heather. There is almost a feeling of links golf about the course due to the crisp turf and slick greens.
