Formed
in 1899, Nairn Dunbar has much history |
 |
|
Queen Victoria was busy celebrating her eightieth birthday as Sir Alexander
Dunbar of Boath stepped up to the first tee of a brand new course on the
shores of the Moray Firth. Amid applause from the crowd, he raised his specially
made club and made a splendid drive along the gorse and whin lined fairway.
It was 24th May, 1899 and the first shot on the links course to which Sir
Alexander Dunbar had given both his name and sixty acres of land, had just
been played.
A century on, Nairn Dunbar is a formidable Championship course, giving treasured
golf memories to visitors from around the world. The club was founded to
allow working men and women to enjoy the 'royal and ancient game of golf',
and this principle holds firm today.
