Created on a narrow strip of land between the New Course and the sea, the Jubilee was originally a 12 hole course intended for ladies and beginners. It has been extended twice and now measures 6,742 yards, the longest course operated by the St Andrews Links Trust.
It is also the most demanding course, and many find it the most difficult in the St Andrews area with some of the holes being closely lined with gorse bushes and requiring long, straight tee shots. There is a fine collection of par three holes and testing par fours to large, undulating greens and these as always, are protected by cavernous pot bunkers normally associated with links golf. Given its location beside the sea, it is prone to the sea breezes that sweep in from St Andrews Bay.
