Set against the dramatic dunes of Scotland's rugged northeast coast, the New Course has quickly established itself as one of the most exciting and challenging layouts in modern golf since opening last summer. The 18-hole course was designed to complement the original Championship Course, with the pair creating 36 holes of world-class golf.

The recognition for 'World's Best Contribution to Golf Tourism Hospitality' acknowledges the resort's exceptional service standards, world-class facilities and commitment to enhancing Scotland's global reputation as the Home of Golf.

President Donald J. Trump, 45th & 47th President of The United States of America, said: "A great honor to win such a prestigious award from the highly respected World Golf Awards. I am very proud of the job that Eric Trump and my team did on building one of the greatest golf courses anywhere in the world. It will make people happy for a long time to come!"

Chris Frost, Managing Director, World Golf Awards, said: "Congratulations to Trump International Scotland for this remarkable triple win at World Golf Awards 2025. I've been fortunate enough to visit the completed project, and it is world-class. The transformation of the region through this beautifully designed and architecturally sympathetic golf resort is remarkable. A true icon of luxury has been created, thanks to the vision and dedication of the Trump brand and its outstanding contribution to global golf tourism. President Donald J. Trump, Eric Trump, Sarah Malone and the entire team deserve great credit for bringing this extraordinary project to life."

Eric Trump, Executive Vice President, The Trump Organization, said: "We are incredibly proud and truly honored to be awarded three top World Golf Awards and to be named 'World's Best Golf Course' for our magnificent New Course in Aberdeenshire, Scotland. From the outset, this property has been a labour of love. We have built the greatest 36 holes along the spectacular North Sea shoreline and are immensely grateful to World Golf Awards and all those who have supported us."
