Which shot are you hitting on Calamity Corner?

Gary on the Valley: Hole 7 - 'Bunker's Hill'

Holes 13 and 17 are brilliant examples of how links greens can sit on the ground and still be interesting and challenging, without needing to be unnaturally elevated to make them great.

The 6th on Valley, nestled beneath the towering dunes that call it home.

In flight above the Dunluce.

The Valley has stepped out of the shadows and into its rightful place. Martin Ebert's work has transformed the layout and revealed stunning views across the town and sea.

Yesterday's #ThankAGreenkeeper Day gives us the chance to highlight the work Graeme and his team do every single morning, presenting both our Harry Colt masterpieces in pristine condition for members and visitors alike.

Early mornings on the links. Greenkeepers out before sunrise while guests wake in The Rosses, ready to take on our 36 championship holes.

Every par 3 on the Dunluce.

Such was Harry Colt's genius, he managed to create two short holes on such interesting land that bunkers need not exist. One at Calamity Corner, and the other here at the 6th, named Harry Colt's.

Despite only being a couple of years old, the new holes on the Valley look like they've always been there. Looking out over the 18th green towards the 16th, it's easy to see why the work has catapulted the course into the GB&I Top 100.

Gary on the Valley: Hole 3 - 'Rhona Adair's'

The Dunluce's 5th green - a view we never tire of.

Calamity Corner. Do you play safe and aim for Bobby Locke's hollow, or try to make birdie like Scottie Scheffler?

Entries are now OPEN for the Irish Golf Cup on Sunday 30th August. This one sells out quickly, so be sure to register now to avoid disappointment: bit.ly/3Q0CMcv

The 7th epitomises the Valley's minimalistic use of bunkering. A single bunker frames the hole, and the closer you play to it, the stronger your angle into the green. The dunescape does the rest.

Set your reminders for midday on Monday. This one sells out fast. bit.ly/3Q0CMcv

A hole designed by Harry Colt (10), one he loved so much it bears his name (6), and a hole designed by Martin Ebert (8). A special section of the Dunluce where neighbouring holes intertwine, each with their own design philosophy and stories, but all fitting in with each other.
