The Old Course at St Andrews, often referred to as the 'Home of Golf', is set to undergo a series of enhancements and restorations ahead of the 155th Open Championship scheduled for 2027. The changes aim to preserve the course's historical significance while improving playability for modern golfers.
Officials have outlined a careful program of work that will commence in November, focusing on areas that have seen significant wear over the years. This initiative reflects a commitment to maintaining the integrity of the course while adapting to the evolving nature of the game.
As one of the most iconic venues in golf, the Old Course's modifications will be closely monitored by fans and players alike, with the goal of ensuring that it remains a challenging and enjoyable experience for all who play it.
