The best golf courses in the world
6. Muirfield
East Lothian, Scotland
Old Tom Morris was the first man to shape the land here but really the course we play today is the work of Harry Colt. It’s a brilliant piece of design on what is not necessarily the most thrilling piece of linksland. Constant changes of direction are one of its greatest features.
