Trump International Golf Links Scotland will host the second playing of the Scottish Championship in August 2025.

The Scottish Championship is returning to the DP World Tour schedule.

And what a place to do it!

Donald Trump may not have the pulling power to get The Open back to Turnberry, but another of his spectacular Scotland layouts will host Europe’s finest this summer.

The Scottish Championship will fill the last remaining gap in the DP World Tour’s 2025 calendar at Trump International Golf Links Scotland in August, a venue the current US president has owned since 2011.

The tournament – which has previously been played just once, when Fairmont St Andrews hosted in 2020 as part of the rejigged calendar during the Covid pandemic – will be the penultimate event of the DP World Tour’s ‘Closing Swing’.

“Trump International Golf Links Scotland has already earned a reputation as one of the best modern links courses in the UK and it promises to be an excellent venue for the return of the Scottish Championship to our schedule,” DP World Tour CEO Guy Kinnings said.

Indeed, it ranks very well in our Top 100 Golf Courses in UK and Ireland rundown.

The ‘Closing Swing’ will start with the Genesis Scottish Open and The Open and also includes the two opposite-field events for those weeks. Then the Scottish Championship will be followed by the Danish Golf Championship ahead of a return to the UK for the ‘Back 9’.

The Scottish Championship at Trump International Golf Links Scotland, near Aberdeen, will take place from August 7-10.
