Willie Campbell came runner-up in the first unofficial US Open in 1894 and the same year became the first professional at The Country Club where he laid down the foundations of the present course.
Willie Campbell was born in Musselburgh and caddied for the three-time Open champion Bob Ferguson when he played on the local links. He played in five of the first six Open championships at Prestwick before finishing second in 1886, which was the closest he ever came to winning the event.

Son of George and Susan Low (without an “e” at the end of the surname), George Lowe was born in the rural parish of Carmyllie, between the Angus towns of Arbroath and Forfar, and he moved with his family when he was eight years old to Carnoustie, where he quickly fell in love with the game of golf through caddying.

The latest ranking of the Top 100 Golf Courses in the World serves as the ultimate global golf bucket list. Most members of our World Top 100 Panel are seasoned golfers, each playing 20-30 of these courses annually while travelling extensively over decades to form their opinions on others. We recognise that opinions vary—even among our panel members. Rankings are subjective, and there are undoubtedly 50 or more courses in the UK and USA alone that could easily fit onto this list.
