This was my 2d trip to play the Royal Portrush course and it was fantastic. I've played 20 of the top links courses in Ireland and Royal Portrush is in the top 3. So far is is Royal Portrush 3 and frank 0, but I'm planning to go back again in September to see if I can even the score.

This is a must course to play if you like true links golf. We also played Portstewart, Castlerock and Ballyliffin (all excellent links courses as well), but we ranked Royal Portrush number 1 of the courses listed.

One of the most amazing courses I've ever played, Great condition all year round, a tough test for any player and a worthy course for the irish open this year.

One the great seaside links courses in the world. With the wind up, it will make you play every shot you have and demand more. Truly a classic by H.S. Colt. Deserves to host an Open Championship.
