The "Links Course" refers to a type of golf course typically found along coastal areas. These courses are characterized by their natural terrain, featuring sandy soil, dunes, and minimal trees. The design often incorporates the natural landscape, making it a unique challenge for golfers. Links courses are known for their firm and fast playing conditions, influenced by the wind and weather. They often have fewer water hazards and rely on the natural elements to create obstacles. Famous examples of links courses include St. Andrews in Scotland and Royal Portrush in Northern Ireland.
