Designed in 1891 Muirfield Golf Course is one of the most famous golf courses as well as one of the best golf courses in the world.

Since then it has hosted over a dozen Open Golf Championships, as well as the Ryder, Walker and Curtis Cups. Just under 7000 yards, its numerous rough bunkers make it a challenging golf course, but its location on the edge of the Firth of Forth with close proximity to Edinburgh make it much sought after as a 'trophy' golf course.

San Diego has some great public golf courses. Two of the best are Torrey Pines and La Costa. Torrey Pines has a big tournament every year and was host to the U.S. Open 2 years ago.
