Definition

A golf course built on coastal sand dunes and natural linksland, featuring firm turf, natural hazards, and exposure to wind and weather elements. Links courses represent golf's traditional origins in Scotland and Ireland, where the game developed on naturally occurring coastal terrain. These courses typically feature undulating fairways, deep pot bunkers, gorse and heather, and firm, fast playing conditions. Links design emphasizes strategic play over target golf, requiring creativity and adaptability. Many of golf's most prestigious venues are links courses, including venues for The Open Championship and other major tournaments.
