In the late 1800s, the Old Course was getting too popular, largely due to the extra visitors flocking to St. Andrews on the trains.
The oldest ‘new’ course in the world, the second course at the Home of Golf was built by the Keeper of the Green Tom Morris in 1895 and it was imaginatively named to differentiate from its famous neighbour. Boasting undulating fairways and challenging greens, the New Course is a classic test of Links golf.
