Abstract/Contents:Profiles The Castle Course at St.Andrews Links, Fife, Scotland. States that "the Castle Course was built to take the pressure off the already very busy courses on St Andrews Links." Focuses on the greens, stating that "the course is situated on heavy, poor draining soils, which meant the greens had to be constructed artificially following the USGA [United States Golf Association] guidelines." Concludes that "It was a challenge to meet the standards laid down in the breathtaking design."
