Play Turnberry after the Open

Posted on 03/06/09. By Lee Todd

Turnberry's magnificent links will see history made when the world's best golfers compete for the Claret Jug in July, and while most can't play in the 138th Open Championship you can be one of the first to follow in the champion's footsteps thanks to Your Golf Travel.com.

The Ailsa Course has been closed since October last year and doesn't reopen to the public until two days after the event - and Your Golf Travel.com has some fantastic deals to give you the chance to relive the competition's defining moments.

Packages start from just £399 per person for one night's bed and breakfast in the resort's five-star hotel and two rounds of golf, one on each of the Ailsa and Kintyre courses.

Regarded by many as the finest links course in Scotland, Turnberry's dramatic landscape, with the imposing Ailsa Craig just off the stunning coastline, was the setting for Tom Watson and Jack Nicklaus' legendary duel in the 1977 Open and is a truly spectacular place to golf.

This is just one of the many opportunities Your Golf Travel.com gives amateur golfers to follow in the footsteps of their heroes thanks to the company's ‘Inside the Ropes' packages.

Sunday league footballers rarely get the chance to play at Wembley and playing on the centre court at Wimbledon is a pipe-dream for most tennis lovers. However, Your Golf Travel.com is offering golfers the opportunity to play at a host of exclusive professional tour venues with their innovative new breaks which start from just £99 per person.
