Video: Flyover Of Proposed Royal Portrush Changes

January 14, 2016/ Geoff Shackelford

Nice work by Golf Central Daily to note Wild Atlantic Golf's post of the flyover video depicting the architect's vision for two new holes at Royal Portrush.

The firm of Mackenzie and Ebert's course changes, prompted by ex R&A Chief Executive/Architect Peter Dawson, calls for numerous bunker additions. The film covers the conversion of holes 17 and 18 on the existing course into a tent village for the 2019 Open Championship and shows us the two new holes being added. The narrator is Maureen Madill.

First aerial look at the course changes to Royal Portrush ahead of its staging The 2019 Open Championship.
