Trump International Aberdeen is a modern links of epic proportions. Opened in 2012 and designed by Dr. Martin Hawtree, it occupies a stretch of towering dunes north of Aberdeen on Scotland’s east coast. The scale is immense – sweeping fairways, massive bunkers, and elevated greens tucked into dune amphitheatres. Every hole is framed by natural landforms that make it feel like the course has always existed. The front nine features strong par-4s and stunning coastal views, building to the cliffside par-3 6th and the risk-reward 7th. The back nine climbs into even wilder terrain, with the 14th through 18th forming a brutal closing stretch. It’s long and demanding, especially in wind, and requires a complete game: towering tee shots, accurate iron play, and a razor-sharp short game. Conditioning is immaculate. This is not a gentle links stroll – it’s a statement course, built to impress and test. Love it or loathe it, you won’t forget it. Ideal for strong players looking for a modern, championship-scale challenge.
