Ury Golf

A true test of golf at Ury Estate.

“From the first day I walked Ury Estate, I was impressed with the stunning natural landscape. This affords a truly spectacular panorama of the rich Aberdeenshire countryside, stretching all the way to the sea. I wanted to design a course that blended in naturally with this and to offer a truly memorable round of golf, as much fun for novices as for pros to play, with challenge, beauty and drama present throughout.

Scotland holds a very special place in my heart and I have always enjoyed a special relationship with its people, who have generously embraced me. All three of my Open championship wins occurred in Scotland and some of my favourite golf courses are here.  To have this opportunity to create something truly special at Ury Estate is both an honour and a great responsibility.  I hope that the golf course we have created will provide a great experience for golfers well beyond my lifetime.” – Jack Nicklaus

Nicklaus-designed golf courses have hosted a total of 292 PGA Tour competitions, 59 Major championships and a combined six Ryder and Presidents Cups, outlining the quality on offer in terms of Golf Courses designed by The Golden Bear. Like those that have preceded it, Ury Estate is set to be a very challenging course well-suited for tournament play in due course.
