About Carnoustie Golf Links – Championship Course
The Championship Course at Carnoustie Golf Links is one of Scotland's greatest and most demanding links courses, widely known in professional golf circles as "Car-nasty" for its brutal finishing holes. Designed by Tom Morris Sr. and developed over decades to its current form, the course has hosted the Open Championship eight times. The 17th and 18th holes — Barry Burn crossing the fairway multiple times — form one of the most pressure-laden finishes in championship golf, as famously demonstrated by Jean van de Velde's infamous collapse in the 1999 Open.
