The front nine are usually praised for their outstanding quality but whilst they flatter I also like the quality of the back nine.

Love the first tee right in front of the splendid clubhouse, and to be heading straight out to sea. A great traditional links making the most of its land with superb routing on firm fairways through dunes. Classic in and out links which gave up 25 points with the wind behind, and only 11 on the way back!

The back nine are by no means weak, but the outward nine are so impressive that it is easy to see why they propel Royal Aberdeen into the world's top 100.

The fairway grass was delightfully tight, and the greens were in excellent shape with lovely run-offs. Royal Aberdeen stood up to its high billing.

An ancient, but timeless links. The front 9 in amongst the dunes is particularly strong.

Fabulously presented championship links. Every hole is a challenge. Some of them are surely in the running for best looking golf holes in Britain. Front 9 is tighter but normally plays with the prevailing wind. Back 9 a bit more open but is normally played into the prevailing wind. All in all a top tier course.

It has outstanding links course through rolling dunes where the front 9 is revered for its strategic challenge and outstanding routing but the back 9 played into the prevailing wind can be every bit as challenging

The Golf Course is a very playable and traditional out and back likes with undulating fairways and two very different nines.
