About Fortrose and Rosemarkie Golf Course
Located on the Chanonry Peninsula in the ‘Black Isle’ this Scottish links golf course enjoys breathtaking views over the Moray Firth, close to the City of Inverness. Established in 1888 the course was re-designed by the five times Open Champion James Braid in 1932.
The course has received accolades such as ‘a gem of a course by the sea’, ‘perhaps the best jewel in the highland golfing crown’ and ‘a unique course with special character to be found nowhere else’.
About Castle Stuart Golf Links
The Castle Stuart Golf Course is at the heart of the highlands offering classic links golf that is beautifully complemented by spectacular views overlooking a truly breathtaking coastal landscape. Opened in 2009 and designed by Mark Parsinen and Gill Hanse, the 18-hole, 6,906 yards, par 72 golf course at Castle Stuart is the epitome of contemporary links course architecture, with wide fairways, huge undulations, and extraordinary greens, all bordered by thin fescue, broom, gorse, and heather. Having played host to the Scottish Open on four occasions, it is clear that both the facilities and course are among the very best in the UK.
Rules and Information
Golf Format:
The event is played as a four-ball better ball format off 85% of your official handicap using stableford scoring under the rules of golf, and following WHS guidance.
As in any stroke play competition scoring putts must be holed, there is no such thing as a gimme in stroke play competition where you are playing against a field.
Handicap Certificates:
All handicaps will be checked online. Please have a certificate or Golf App available on your phone to show the team. You may wish to have a certificate on your phone available in case of issues as WHS is not always perfect.
Prizes:
Prizes will be sent out after the event either by email for vouchers or by post. There will be no prizes handed out on the day or any prize giving.
Golf Carts:
We permit the use of golf carts for medical reasons only. We accept self certification. Please arrange directly with the club.
