Reflecting on his first visit in 1977 and his much-loved book A Season in Dornoch, Lorne sums it up perfectly:
“Dornoch is my spiritual home of golf.”

As our new clubhouse was taking shape, our friends at The Country Club of North Carolina wanted to mark the milestone with a truly special gift: a bespoke 4.8m American Black Walnut table for our Donald Ross Room.
Crafted locally by Treecraft Woodwork, it features a stunning hand-inlaid coat of arms.
A huge thank you to @CCNorthCarolina for celebrating our shared history in such a lasting way!

Some of golf's greatest names left their mark on the Highlands.
Old Tom Morris and James Braid, legendary architects whose work can still be experienced today.
From Tain and Strathpeffer to Brora, Boat of Garten and Reay, their designs are part of the fabric of Highland golf.

This #ThankAGreenkeeper Day, we recognise the hard work and dedication of our great greenkeeping team at Royal Dornoch.
One of them, Alexander “Dander” Richardson, has another important role too. When the pager goes off, he swaps his tractor for a fire engine as a retained firefighter.
Two roles. One incredible commitment to his community.

A course with a character all of its own.
Designed by James Braid, Golspie winds along the shores of the Dornoch Firth, combining classic links, heathland and parkland holes in one memorable round.
Enjoy the views and get a taste of what makes Golspie such a special place to play

A new short video by US production company Caravan captures the spirit of Royal Dornoch.
After visiting the club, the Charlotte-based team were inspired to tell the story of the Championship Course, its history and the feeling of walking these remarkable links - with some help from a memorable quote by Club President Alan Ramsey.
The result is a film that gets to the heart of what makes Royal Dornoch so special.

There is much more to a golf trip to Scotland than the courses.
Ahead of his return to Dornoch, @lornerubenstein reflects on the bookshop, friendships and familiar places that make the town so special.

As a Retired US Army paratrooper, pictures like these hit hard. Trump never had the courage to pick up a rifle and man a post when he was called to serve.
Yet he has the nerve to promote AI pictures like this showing him wearing things like Parachutist badges, and rows of ribbons he never had to courage to obtain. Anyone who has ever served should be pissed at garbage like this.
His father paid a doctor’s note so he wouldn't have to serve. But remember that for every one of the draft deferments, someone else had to go in his place.
A pure disgrace.
