Honourable Company of Edinburgh Golfers,Muirfield Links

Home to the historic Honourable Company of Edinburgh Golfers, Muirfield Links has been in existence since 1891. The celebrated course lies to the east of Edinburgh on the south shore of the Firth of Forth in East Lothian, dubbed "Scotland’s Golf Coast." The testing track features two loops of nine running in opposite directions, which ensures the wind is never blowing from the same direction on consecutive holes. The club has been the center of controversy in recent years after first voting not to allow women members in 2016 before reversing its decision and changing its membership policy the following year. The first women members were finally admitted in 2019.
