Description

Turnberry
is a golf resort on the
Firth of Clyde
in
Ayrshire
, southwest
Scotland
. It comprises three
links
golf courses, a golf academy, a
five-star
James Miller
-designed hotel from 1906, along with lodge and cottage accommodations.
Turnberry was a popular golf course and resort from its inception, made accessible because of the
Maidens and Dunure Light Railway
. It closed in both World Wars for military use, and there was concern it would not open following
World War II
, but it was redesigned by
Mackenzie Ross
and re-opened in 1951. The course was the scene of the
1977 Open Championship
, where
Tom Watson
scored a close victory over
Jack Nicklaus
. The property has been owned by the
Trump Organization
since 2014,
