Great Reviews
We have had the pleasure of hosting many influencers with some great reviews including this by The Average Golfer.
The Forres 5-Day
The 5-day has been an established part of the opens in the North of Scotland for many years. Over the years the Forres 5-day has built a reputation as one of the most loved open competitions. Some who have moved away from the town come back year on year and others who came once keep coming back with friends with groups returning every year from the likes of Dundee, Glasgow and Newcastle.
The current champion is Maurice (Mo) Lyndsay. A 2 time winner of the Grant Cup, Mo also holds the distinction of being one of the ever present competitors since the 1990s. Not bad considering he makes the trip from Dundee each year.
