Waterville is rated among the top 5 courses in Ireland and the top 20 links courses in the world. The testing begins early at Waterville with the first hole named "Last Easy". Numerous professional tournaments were played here, and over forty of the world's greatest champions from Sam Snead to Tiger Woods have experienced the Links. The late Henry Cotton, three times British Open Champion, probably said it best when he commented: 'Waterville has to be one of the greatest golf courses ever built. If it were located in Britain, it would undoubtedly be a venue for the British Open. I have never seen a more consistent succession of really strong and beautiful golf holes than here."
