YARDAGE GUIDE

T RU M PT U R N B E R RY

Dear Friends,

It is my great pleasure to welcome you to Trump Turnberry!

Trump Turnberry boasts an incredibly rich history, not only in the game ofgolf, but in the history of Scotland itself. The iconic Turnberry Lighthousesits atop the ruins of the 13th century castle of King Robert the Bruce, whowas born on this sacred piece of land in July of 1274 and later confirmedScotland’s independence in the Battle of Bannockburn in 1314.

Built in 1873 by pioneering Scottish lighthouse designer Thomas Stevenson,father of author Robert Louis Stevenson (made famous for his works“Treasure Island,” “Kidnapped” and “Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr.Hyde”), the lighthouse was constructed to allow seafaring vessels the abilityto safely navigate the treacherous coastline. Moreover, Turnberry wastransformed to serve the Royal Air Force (RAF), while the illustriousTurnberry hotel was commissioned as a Royal Naval Hospital during bothWorld Wars.

In 2016, world-renowned architect Martin Ebert was appointed once more byThe Trump Organization to create the world-class golf experience our guestsenjoy today. With 7,200-yards of the finest links in the world, the KingRobert the Bruce will astound you with breath taking views of Turnberry’sdramatic coastline, castle ruins and exquisite Turnberry lighthouse.

I look forward to sharing this magnificent property with you --- you will notfind a more majestic, historic or beautiful golfing destination anywhere in theworld. Enjoy your round!

Sincerely,

Eric Trump

The opening hole is a long, dog leg left, par 5 and the namerefers to the adjacent barley fields planted after the SecondWorld War. The ideal tee shot should favour the left side ofthe fairway to avoid the bunkers on the right. Two fairwaybunkers are well placed at the second shot landing area andmust be avoided. The green is surrounded by gorse and a

large greenside bunker looms on the right.

‘Cosie Neuk’ is well named as the 2nd green is one ofthe most sheltered at Turnberry. This par 3, with alarge two-tiered green, requires careful club selection,

as the wrong club could leave a tricky putt.

HOLE 3 APPROACH

The ‘Distant Light’ refers to the Turnberry Lighthouse,which is directly in your line of sight from the tee. Thisshort par 4 should not be underestimated. The fairwayis lined with gorse bushes and there are bunkers eitherside of the landing area. The approach shot shouldfavour the left side of the green to avoid the pot

bunkers guarding the right.

HOLE 4 APPROACH

This is one of the most heavily bunkered holes on King Robertthe Bruce and aptly named ‘Sandy Love’. Par is a good score onthe difficult dog-leg left hole. The tee shot should be hit betweenthe bunker on the left of the fairway and the two bunkers on theright. The green is longer than it appears and is guarded by a largebunker short of the green. An extra club may be required in order

to carry this troublesome bunker.

HOLE 5 APPROACH

This demanding par 4 runs parallel to an expansive naturalwetland area. An accurate tee shot is required with troublewaiting on either side of the fairway. The approach shot

should favour the left-hand side of the green to avoid catchingthe two greenside bunkers on the right. The contours on theleft side of the green will also assist by moving the ball back

towards the centre of the putting surface.

‘Holy Isle’ is a small island just off the coast ofArran. This tricky par 3 plays directly towards

Holy Isle, which can be seen from the highest pointon the course – Bain’s Hill. This raised undulatinggreen is hard to hit and par is always a good score.

HOLE 7 APPROACH

‘Round the Mountain’ is a gentle dog-leg left and is similar inshape to the 7th hole on the Ailsa Course which shares thisname. A tee shot down the left-hand side of the fairway willleave the best possible view of the green. The approach shotshould also favour the left half of the green to avoid the largebunkers on the right. The contours on the left will filter the

ball back to the middle of the green.

HOLE 8 APPROACH

This is one of the most exposed parts of the golf course and rightly named‘Windy Hill’, this hole plays into the prevailing south-westerly wind. The teeshot should be hit down the right side of the fairway in order to miss the fairwaybunker on the left. From there you should get a great view of this par 5 greenbut care must be taken to consider all the options when deciding your strategywith the next shot. Enjoy the incredible view when you reach this green but

also take time to study your line on this tricky putting surface.

HOLE 9 APPROACH

The green on this par 4 is set in an incredible location, perched highabove Kintyre’s Cove. Being in position off the tee will determinewhether you can go for the carry across the cove to this green. Thefairway continues to the right for those that are looking for a safer

route. Supreme accuracy is the key here for any approach shot, as thegreen itself is heavily guarded, but once safely on the putting surfaceyou will enjoy spectacular views across to the Mull of Kintyre.

This part of the golf course is played on Bain's Hill,which lends its name to this par 3 hole. Again clubselection is the key here as anything short of the

green will leave a testing chip shot to this undulatinggreen. The bunkers have to be avoided so finding

the green with your tee shot is vital.

This par 5 is played from an elevated tee on Bain's Hill and offers aview of the 'Down and Round' corner of the dog-leg. This hole hasspectacular views and finding the fairway from the tee will allow youto see the rest of this formidable hole. Care must be taken with yournext shot as position is key here. The green is raised at the front andit is best to aim for the right half and let the natural contours feed

the ball back to the centre of the putting surface.

'Don't Be Afraid' is the advice for this par 3 asonly committed shots will be rewarded. There isa bunker short left, which makes the hole seemshorter than it actually is. The middle of thegreen is the target as there are two greensidebunkers on the right and a slope to the left that

could leave a tricky pitch if caught.

A poor shot may introduce you to 'The Marshland',but you must also ensure that you miss the fairwaybunkers on the right. The approach shot to this par4 should be played to the left half of the green toavoid the greenside bunker on the right. The two-tiered green is particularly undulating and a par is

always a good score on this hole.

HOLE 14 APPROACH

This hole refers to Drumadoon Point, which is situated on the Isle of Arran. A tee shot down the right half of the fairway, avoiding the fairway bunkers,

will leave a full view of the green for the second shot. A pot bunker awaits anyover-adventurous or miss-hit second shots, so, perhaps laying up short of it

may be the best option. This green is well guarded with a greenside bunker onthe left and slopes off the right-hand side of the green. These slopes will forcethe ball towards the gorse, so it is best to play for the left half to avoid the

bushes or a tricky up and down.

HOLE 15 APPROACH

Scurdy was the name of the original gamekeeper who was in charge ofthe grounds at Turnberry. The tee shot on this par 4 should be aimeddown the left half of the fairway to avoid the long stretch of gorse thatlines the right-hand side of this hole. The approach shot should alsofavour the left-hand side of the green to avoid the bunkers short andright. With the majority of the trouble short and the green sloping

from back to front, it may be wise to take an extra club.

The Ailsa Craig was nicknamed 'Paddy's Milestane'by the Irish as it lies halfway between Belfast andGlasgow. The green on this par 3 is extremelyundulating and it is protected by both the slopes

and three greenside bunkers. Play for the middle ofthe green to have a chance of birdie, but take careas you will often have a testing two putt for par.

HOLE 17 APPROACH

This hole is one of the only areas unaffected by runway construction duringthe World Wars and it deserved its name, which translates as 'an area of grassleft untouched'. The tee shot on this testing par 4, dog-leg right, should be hitdown the left side of the fairway to avoid the two bunkers on the right and theburn that runs to the edge of the fairway just beyond them. The approach shotneeds to be hit to the right half of the green to miss the bunker on the left,however, too far right and a severe slope will leave an awkward up and down.

Par is a great score on this tough, penultimate hole.

The 'Home' hole of King Robert the Bruce is apar 5, dog-leg left, laden with bunkers. The teeshot should be hit down the left half of the fairway,to avoid the bunkers on the right-hand side, and agood second shot is required to avoid one of theremaining bunkers. The green itself has many subtle slopes that will challenge any chip shot orlong putt so take time to study your line. Thisstrong finishing hole is a fitting end to the round.
