About Jubilee Course

The Jubilee Course is an 18-hole links at St Andrews in Fife, managed as part of the St Andrews Links. It was created in 1897 during Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee, initially as a 12-hole course intended for ladies and children. John Angus is credited with laying out that first version on the narrow strip of linksland between the New Course and the sea.

It expanded to 18 holes in 1902, and former Open champion Willie Auchterlonie later undertook further work. Donald Steel completed a substantial redesign in 1988, helping transform the Jubilee into a championship-standard course. A current visitor-event scorecard lists the men's course at 6,424 yards and par 72, with the women's course playing 5,975 yards at par 74.

The course is an 18-hole links golf course. It plays to par 72, 6,424 yards. Designed by John Angus, the course originally opened in 1897. It is open to the public. On-site facilities include Driving Range, Putting Green, Golf Lessons, Club Fitting, Club Hire, Caddie Service, Restaurant, Bar.
