While Carnoustie is rightly famous for its testing Championship course, mention should also be made of the Burnside Course, which occupies the links land beside it.

The Burnside is steeped in its own fair share of history, too, as it has previously been used as qualifying venue for the Open, and is a genuine links course that is both testing and fun to play.

The fairways are narrow and bordered by heather, rough whins and the tricky pot bunkers that are a trademark of all three Carnoustie layouts.

With greens are generally quite small, sloping and difficult to hold, particularly in dry summer conditions, so when you add in the seemingly ever-present Carnoustie breeze, you have a course that will be waiting to catch you out!
