The Musselburgh Golf Club was formed in 1938. Having lost the Open Championship when The Hon. Company moved to Muirfield, Musselburgh Town Council decided to build a championship course at Monktonhall.

The Club

Over the years the course has hosted many amateur championships and on two occasions the Scottish Professional Championship. It has the distinction of being a Regional Open Championship Qualifying course for Scotland until 2010 and in 2013 a Local Final Qualifying venue for THE OPEN at Muirfield.

The Course

The 5 times Open Champion James Braid, who, in his later years became a renowned golf course architect, designed the new course. He designed a championship standard course, which at 6725 yards long is a true test of golf for even the most accomplished golfer.

Membership

Musselburgh is a very popular club with a total membership of more than 800. There are currently however some vacancies for both Full and 5 Day memberships. Anyone interested in joining the club should click here  to find out more and download an application form.
