The famed Turnberry links are part of the Westin Turnberry Resort in Ayrshire, Scotland, next to the Firth of Clyde. Turnberry includes three golf courses: the 9-hole Arran Course; the 18-hole Kintyre Course; and the 18-hole Ailsa Course, which is one of the most famous and highly regarded golf courses in the world, and is the course featured in this photo gallery. The Turnberry Resort is also home to a Colin Montgomerie Links Golf Academy.
The Turnberry Ailsa Course has been the site of the Open Championship (a k a, the British Open) numerous times. The most famous Open here was the 1977 "Duel in the Sun," in which Tom Watson and Jack Nicklaus battled head-to-head for the final two rounds before Watson emerged victorious. Turnberry Ailsa hosted the Open again in 2009.
