The event, taking place from Thursday, August 14 to Sunday, August 17, will provide a unique opportunity to play with, be coached by, and gain insight into the career of one of the game's greatest ever golfers who won both The Open and Masters three times.
The extraordinary golfing experience comes just a few weeks after the reopening of the Ailsa following extensive renovations, elevating one of the world's great links courses to new heights.
The Ailsa has already witnessed some of the sport's most storied moments as a four-time host of The Open including the unforgettable 'Duel in the Sun' between Jack Nicklaus and Tom Watson in 1977, and 2025 heralds a new chapter for the Ayrshire links.
The three-night package includes: three nights with full Scottish breakfast at Trump Turnberry Resort; two rounds on the championship Ailsa Course; six holes with Sir Nick Faldo on the Ailsa Course; one round on The King Robert the Bruce Course; evening Q&A with Sir Nick Faldo; golf clinic led by Sir Nick Faldo at The Trump Turnberry Academy, lunch-time refreshments; pre-dinner drinks and dinner on each night and welcome gift.
For non-golfers there are relaxing treatments at The Spa at Turnberry, thrilling outdoor pursuits including clay pigeon shooting, archery and horse riding, shopping at the Pro Shop, or indulgent dining experiences including the signature afternoon tea.
The package includes full access to the Turnberry practice facilities including The Wee Links Pitch & Putt.
For guests looking to take their game to the next level, the new state-of-the-art Trackman Range and Trackman iO Simulator will provide participants with the opportunity to fine-tune distances or enjoy a competitive round indoors with friends within the Golf Academy at Trump Turnberry.
The iconic Ailsa course is a permanent fixture at the top of global golf course rankings, and will open for members from June 1 and guests a month later following an eagerly anticipated refurbishment by renowned architect Martin Ebert.
Headlining the latest changes are the seventh and eighth holes hugging the rugged coastline to offer a golfing experience vista like no other.
The King Robert the Bruce, which is recognised as one of Scotland's best golfing experiences in its own right and made its debut this year in the renowned Golf Digest World's Greatest 100 Courses ranking to join the illustrious Ailsa on the list, is another journey through one of Scotland's most picturesque landscapes.
Nic Oldham, General Manager at Trump Turnberry, said: 'We look forward to welcoming Sir Nick and guests to Trump Turnberry for what promises to be a truly special occasion. The Ailsa is looking magnificent after the renovations and the opportunity to play with one of the game's greatest ever golfers will be an experience to treasure.'
Places are limited with packages from £5,755 per person for single occupancy to £9,570 for double occupancy or £7,510 for a golfer and non-golfer.

Scotland starlet eyed by Sunderland as EPL side 'readying bid' to beat Celtic to transfer of £10m-rated ace

Celtic could be set to lose out on long-term target Lennon Miller this summer after a new report claimed English Premier League side Sunderland are ready to launch an ambitious £10million deal for the highly-rated Motherwell and Scotland midfielder. The in-demand teenager has been linked with a move away from Fir Park after entering the final year of his contract, with Celtic, Rangers, Strasbourg and Borussia Dortmund, and a number of other clubs across Europe, said to hold an interest in the Scottish starlet. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad Named the SWFA young player of the year in May, he scored four goals and assisted a further eight last season as Motherwell finished eighth in the Scottish Premiership. He also captained the side on multiple occasions. The 18-year-old put in a sparking performance on his first international start for Scotland this week too. Partnering Billy Gilmour in midfield, Miller grabbed an assist as Scotland thrashed Liechtenstein 4-0 in Monday's international friendly in Vaduz. Lennon Miller is one of Scottish football's hottest properties. | SNS Group "It's a good night's work,' said Miller after the game. 'A proud moment to make my first start and to pop up with an assist is always nice. We played some nice stuff out there. I thought we came here tonight and our application was second to none. I've got a couple of weeks off to come, then it's back to it." Motherwell were reported to have rejected a bid of £2.5million from Serie A side Udinese back in January, with the offer said to have fallen well short of the club's valuation of Miller. However, with the Fir Park star out of contract next year, it could prove difficult to keep him at the club this summer, with Sunderland are 'readying' a bid of £10million in order to tempt Miller across the border, according to an exclusive report from SportsBoom. While the young maestro has plenty suitors across Europe, the reports claims the Black Cats are 'quietly confident' they can tempt Miller south of the border, with the promise of regular English Premier League football one of their big selling points.

Punters dramatically lose faith in Rory McIlroy in wake of his astonishingly honest US Open confession
Rorymania is in short supply in Pennsylvania as the toughest venue in golf causes punters to panic Grand-slam golfing hero Rory McIlroy has watched his odds to win the US Open plummet hours after he admitted to a disastrous practice round at unforgiving Oakmont. The Masters champion confessed he shot an 81 during a scouting mission at the feared venue in Pennsylvania where the unforgiving rough and fiendishly difficult pin positions can make a fool out of the world's best. McIlroy robustly defended his scorecard which included two birdies on the 17th and 18th, however, faith among punters is on the wane with the Irishman now third in betting markets behind PGA winner Scottie Scheffler and defending US Open champion Bryson DeChambeau – the man who dramatically extended McIlroy's then 10-year wait for Major glory. And bookies admit Rorymania is in short supply as oddsmakers adjust their market forecast ahead of the action getting underway on Thursday with Scotland's Bob MacIntyre catching the eye. Spokesperson for William Hill, Lee Phelps, said: 'Following his first missed cut of the season at the RBC Canadian Open, Rory McIlroy has drifted in the US Open outright market from 8/1 to 11/1, behind favourite Scottie Scheffler (13/5) and defending champion Bryson DeChambeau (7/1). 'While McIlroy has drifted, others in the market have shortened – we've seen some late support come in for Ludvig Aberg, who we've cut to 20/1 from 25/1. 'Jon Rahm and Xander Schauffele remain steady in the betting, priced 11/1 and 20/1 respectively. Further down the market, the British trio of Tommy Fleetwood (30/1), Justin Rose (60/1) and Bob MacIntyre (70/1) have been popular picks among punters before play gets underway at Oakmont Country Club.' Scottie Scheffler 13/5 Bryson DeChambeau 7/1 Rory McIlroy 11/1 Jon Rahm 11/1 Ludvig Aberg 20/1 Xander Schauffele 22/1 BAR 22/1 You can get all the news you need on our dedicated Rangers and Celtic pages, and sign up to our newsletters to make sure you never miss a beat throughout the season.

Fife's Kinneuchar Inn finally among UK's top 100 restaurants - here's why I'm not surprised
Although it is impossible to say for certain, an oft-repeated estimate is that there are well over 30,000 restaurants operating in the UK at any given time. Whittling this number down to a top 100 is a task of gargantuan proportions. One the National Restaurant Awards manages to complete annually. This year's awards took place on Monday June 9, and two Courier Country restaurants made the cut. For the first time in the restaurant's history, The Kinneuchar Inn was one of them. I spoke to James Ferguson – who runs the Kilconquhar restaurant alongside Alethea Palmer – back in May, a few days after he'd found out they'd made the shortlist. 'We're really happy,' he told me. 'We've got a good following in the industry and good friends in the industry.' The fact The Kinneuchar Inn ended up being named the 66th best restaurant in the UK at these awards is a testament to its popularity. The National Restaurant Awards ranking is dictated by votes taken from the industry's leading chefs, restaurateurs and writers. That said, the honour still seems well overdue. The Kinneuchar Inn has long held a reputation as a restaurateur's restaurant thanks to its nose-to-tail ethos and the generous, seasonal dishes the team serve. On a given night, customers can expect everything from Pittenweem surf clams with leeks, cider and dulse to pig's head croquettes. To make matters even better, several of the restaurant's main courses are priced under £25. Other restaurants that offer this style of honest, well-executed and affordable food – such as The Palmerston in Edinburgh – have been named in the National Restaurant Awards' top 100 several years in a row. Naturally, this has added to many people's convictions that it was only a matter of time until The Kinneuchar Inn made the list. Still, James and the team were delighted when the news finally came through. 'We've had a lot of support from other restaurants in Scotland. Loads of them got in touch when it was announced we'd made the shortlist,' he told me with a smile. The vast majority of restaurants named in the top 100 specialise in fine dining. It seems many in the industry still think expensive tasting menus are the ultimate expression of gastronomy. An example of such a menu comes from Crieff's The Glenturret Lalique Restaurant, which was named the 41st best restaurant in the UK at this year's National Restaurant Awards. The restaurant – which boasts two Michelin stars – is known for producing an extensive tasting menu that costs £220 per person. When eating at Glenturret, diners can expect to enjoy excellent dishes that pay homage to Scottish produce. These include the likes of juniper-smoked roe deer and barbecued Orkney scallops. The same can be said of this year's highest rated Scottish restaurant, Lyla. Here, a 10-course tasting menu focuses on sustainable Scottish seafood. It costs £165 per head. And yet, I still find myself drawn towards The Kinneuchar Inn. Maybe I just like an underdog, but there is something infinitely refreshing about seeing a relaxed, rural and affordable restaurant breaking into the UK's most prestigious restaurant list.
