Fairmont St Andrews - Torrance
St Andrews
A links-style course on the clifftops above St Andrews Bay, designed by Sam Torrance — the club describes it as balancing links principles with a modern twist and 'arguably the friendlier of the two' Fairmont courses.
Opened in 2001 as part of the St Andrews Bay resort created by Don and Nancy Panoz, and renamed after Fairmont acquired the resort in 2005. It was a qualifying venue for the 2010 Open at St Andrews and staged the DP World Tour from 2020 to 2022.
