The Donald Names Second Course After Mom

The "MacLeod" course at Trump International Scotland will feature six holes in the dunes and a name invoking Donald Trump's late mother, reports Frank Urquhart who attended a public unveiling of plans by architect Martin Hawtree.

What it lacks in dunes golf it makes up for in length, stretching to 7.400 yards.

Dr Hawtree said: “This will be a golf course for all, ranging in difficulty and challenge depending on which of the four or five tee positions is selected, spanning a range of lengths up to 7400 yards. Fairways will be generous in width but tighter where the longer player will be challenged with bunkers, dunes and rough.

“The rough will be a particular feature of the course, changing in character through the course from wild meadows in the arable parts of the site, through wetlands in the central areas, to marram roughs in the southern dunes, and heathland vegetation in the areas immediately to the back of the sand dunes.”
