Golspie Golf Club is an 18-hole course on Scotland's north-east coast in Sutherland. The club was founded in 1889, although organised golf in the area predates it: the club's history records a Sutherland Golfing Society event in 1878. Golspie began as nine holes and was expanded to 18 in 1905, when the enlarged course was opened by the Duchess of Sutherland.
James Braid was invited to improve the course in 1925, with his work completed by 1926, so he is more accurately recorded as a renovator than as the original designer. The present course measures 6,021 yards from the white tees and plays to par 70, with a published rating of 68.9 and slope of 121. The routing combines coastal, heathland and more sheltered inland characteristics.
