After the Ryder Cup has successfully wrapped up, the European Tour will begin its schedule with the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship. A change from the intensity of the Ryder Cup, this tournament offers its own kind of entertainment on the course. The Alfred Dunhill Links Championship will be played on three courses, The Old Course at St Andrews, the Championship Course in Carnoustie, and Kingsbarns Golf Links.

The Old Course, where the event will begin, is considered the oldest in the world. The course comes with challenges and obstacles that have existed for decades, a product of its rich history.

The Championship Course is another iconic location in Scotland, which has hosted golf since the 16th century. It also hosts numerous other events and was where the legendary Ben Hogan scored his 70 to qualify for the Open Championship which he won. On the other hand, the Kingsbarns course around seven miles away from St Andrews.

The event is one of the most popular golf tournaments. It hosts two different competitions, the individual tournament and the pro-am. It was introduced to the schedule in 2001. However, it is noteworthy that Alfred Dunhill has been linked to the charity since 1985.

Victor Perez won the tournament’s last individual championship edition. Tommy Fleetwood and Ogden Phipps won the team championship.
