Many golfers have portrayed
Royal Portrush Golf Club Dunluce Links as one of the most challenging in
the world and was re-designed by H.S. Colt in 1947.
The club was founded in 1888 and has hosted many championships, such as
the first Open Championship ever held in Ireland in 1951. In more recent
times, has hosted the Senior British Open 1995-1999 and The Amateur
Championship in 1993.
The Valley also offers a stiff challenge and hosts the Causeway Coast
Amateur Tournament with other local courses, the biggest amateur
tournament in the world.
