This home to The Honourable Company of Edinburgh Golfers was established in 1744. Jack Nicklaus won his first British Open on this course, and the course, itself, is considered a challenging feat for even the most experienced player. This course is located in Scotland and is used in rotation for The Open Championship (and has hosted it for a total of 16 times). Muirfield has also hosted The Amateur Championship, The Ryder Cup, 2 Walker Cups, 2 Curtis Cups, and a multitude of other highly respected tournaments.
