Course record

Burnside

Carnoustie’s second course was upgraded and opened as the Burnside in 1934. It developed alongside the better-known Championship course while keeping its own routing and golfing character.¹

Holes: 18
Par: 68
Place: Carnoustie

Burnside’s own test beside the Championship course

The short fifth places the Barry Burn on three sides of the green. At the ninth, a green raised on a small hillock sheds inaccurate shots down its sides, presenting a different kind of short-hole precision.²
