Different to most links courses, Royal Dublin is laid out almost entirely on flat land but still represents as formidable a links test as you are likely to encounter. Royal Dublin is a classic out and back links course of nearly 6600 yards. It plays to a par 72 and features very solid, if scenically unspectacular, holes. The course features some of the truest greens you will ever play. Some monster par 4's are interspersed with a couple of very short par 4's, one of which is drivable.
