Golf in Scotland on classic links is the best. It’s even better with my two sons competing for our own Claret Jug in the “Not Open” Championship.
After landing at Glasgow, we headed straight for Dundonald Links in Ayrshire for a rainy beginning to our trip – with rental clubs. Then it was up north, 235 miles, to Royal Dornoch Golf Club, where our second day was also sans clubs and shoes thanks to U.S. Airways. The weather was beautiful, and our clubs were delivered as we walked up hole No. 18. With our golf clubs finally making it here nearly two days later, we set out for our second round of what would prove to be a total of three at Dornoch, a collection of holes unlike any other.
