Golf will be played on The PGA Centenary Course, designed by Jack Nicklaus and host venue for the 2014 Ryder Cup Matches.  Even for a champion and acclaimed golf architect like Nicklaus, The PGA Centenary Course was a challenge.  It had to be a great course and, set as it is in the heart of Scotland, the country that gave the world golf, Nicklaus described the course as "The finest parcel of land in the world I have ever been given to work with".

A feature of the PGA Centenary Course is the feast of views of the spectacular countryside in which Gleneagles is set. Putting on the two-tier second green, you are distracted by the lush panorama of the rich Perthshire straths.  As you move westwards over the next few holes, the rugged Grampians come into view on the right, then distantly purple ahead, Ben Vorlich and the mountains above the Trossachs.
