The Big Course 

Established in 1905 in the Giffnock suburb of Glasgow, Whitecraigs is a classic parkland course which has a rich history stretching back over 100 years. The greatest golfing events in the club's history are unquestionably the visits of the Ryder Cup teams of 1929 and 1933. The club was also honoured with the visit of the 'Golden Bear' Jack Nicklaus in 1983.

Today, the course continues to provide a truly wonderful golfing experience for all levels of golfers. Situated on the Netherton estate and with easy access to the City and surrounding areas, the course is surrounded by beautiful parkland, and its rolling fairways and smoothly surfaced greens offer a unique golfing challenge, comprising of an 18 hole course at over 6000 yds, and complemented by a leisurely 9 hole par 3 course, known as "The Wee Course".
