I phoned troon there to see if I could get a discount no joy but they do a deal in partnership with other courses, the deal is dundonald links, turnburry, king Robert the Bruce course and royal troon Portland course £299 for the 3 I don't know if that's a good deal or not, oh and Portland course is £85 single

The guy I spoke to said the same its a top 100 course and not to difficult for mid/high hc, he said the old course is extremely difficult even for single hc
I'd love to know who makes up all this "top 100" nonsense. Everything is subjective, one mans meat is another mans poison.

My understanding is that GM have a panel who play all manner of courses and individually rate them and at some stage in the year come together to argue the toss over the eventual order for the year. Once the order was set then I suspect it's more a case of those going up and down, new entries and those dropping out.
The panel probably understand the meat and poison view
next you will be saying the TOC isn't a top 100 course ??:rofl::rofl::rofl:
supposed to be playing Troon in a couple of months, in theory its not costing me anything... except a place in my fourball at Turnberry the wife got me for Christmas.
