The Highland Open Tournament 2009 Centenary Year Sunday the 2rd to Friday the 7th of August

Once described as "the Switzerland of Scotland", Pitlochry Golf Course offers the visitors to the course the chance to play one of Perthshire's most scenic and visually appealing layouts. With each hole a different challenge in its own way, the course is a good test for all levels of players in superb Highland Perthshire surroundings.

A new tournament committee is now in place and has been challenged to reinvigorate the Highland Open experience and to take the enjoyment factor to a higher level.

The week comprises the following events on and off the course and with many new friends, old acquaintances and everything in between to meet up with at Pitlochry, it makes for a complete golf week experience.
