Carnoustie Country Dream Ticket - 7th Dec 2004

The Carnoustie Country Dream Ticket lets you play on four of the world’s classic links courses – Montrose, Monifieth, Panmure (all Open Qualifiers) and Carnoustie Championship, venue for the 1999 and 2007 Open Championships.

For as little as £99, you can follow in the footsteps of some of the game’s past champions: Ben Hogan, Gary Player, Tommy Armour, Tom Watson, Henry Cotton and, most recently, Paul Lawrie, have all written their own chapters in the annals of these famous fairways.

Montrose Medal, described by Ben Crenshaw as ‘a magnificent stretch of marvellously natural ground which depicts how the game was born’, was founded in 1562 making it the fifth oldest course in the world.

Panmure, founded in 1899 and an Open Qualifier since 1931, is valued by those in the know as an ideal ‘dry run’ for Carnoustie.

Ben Hogan qualified in 1953 on the Carnoustie Championship and Burnside Courses. Jean van de Velde, who of course finished runner up in the unforgettable 1999 Open, also qualified from Monifieth.

The great and ancient course at Carnoustie has hosted six Championships, featuring some of the most closely-fought finales between many of the game’s legends. The course has recently been announced as the venue for the 2007 Open.

The combined ticket costs just £195 for all four courses in the summer (April to October), and is even better value at just £99 over the winter (November to March) – a superb way to play four of the greatest and most historic links in Scotland.
