President Trump describes the Ailsa as golf’s Mona Lisa and he has a point. Thanks to Martin Ebert’s redesign, the Ailsa now hugs the shore in a way it really didn’t before while the 9th is now a long par 3 over the rocks below from one cliff top to another. The 10th is a real showstopper with its infinity green while the 11th is now played alongside the sea.
