The Duke's Course in St. Andrews, Scotland
The Duke's Course in St. Andrews, Scotland opened in 1995, but it's practically a whole new golf course, having received a huge makeover after U.S. golf mogul Herb Kohler bought the Old Course Hotel in 2005 and made the Duke's the official course for hotel guests.
The result is 116 new or redesigned bunkers that give the course a more ruggled look and feel. The final four holes of the golf course were also redone, making for a more dramatic finish. This is an upscale, modern heathland course that overlooks the town of St. Andrews and the Fairmont St. Andrews resort.
