We booked into play the Jubilee Course on Wednesday morning before we knew we had got a place on the Old Course in the ballot. We wanted to make sure we experienced at least one of the courses in the heart of St Andrews.

After finishing playing on the Old Course at 8.20pm on the Tuesday night we were teeing off on the Jubilee Course at 7.20am on the Wednesday morning. The sun had come out but the wind was still blowing. The Jubilee proved just as challenging as the Old Course but again it was thoroughly enjoyable.

The Jubilee Course is the third championship course at the Home of Golf. Built in 1897, it was originally intended for use by ladies and beginners however after seeing its prime golfing location between the New Course and the sea, the Jubilee was converted to a championship layout in 1988.

How lucky are we to have played these two fantastic and famous courses.
