while April offers the chance to win a trip to July's Open Championship and

Scotland is undeniably the Home of Golf, with over 550 courses

From the iconic courses of St Andrews and the coastal links of Aberdeenshire,
Morayshire and Ayrshire, to the challenges Dalmahoy and Gleneagles,
Scotland's golf courses provide the experience of a lifetime for golfers.

Sam Torrance, VisitScotland's golf ambassador, said, 'The
Drive It Home promotion is the perfect reason for international golfers to
visit the Home of Golf in 2010. Scotland is the undisputed 'Home of Golf'. We
have the best courses in the world and facilities that are second to none and
will again be firmly on the golfing map this year with the 150th anniversary
of the Open Championship. Scotland has over 550 courses the length and
breadth of the country, the difficulty golfers have when visiting is choosing
their favourite!'

This year's Drive it Home campaign website harnesses the
support and enthusiasm of hundreds of partners across Scottish tourism,
including 60 accommodation providers and travel operators. With free tee
times up for grabs at over 50 of Scotland's courses, and a range of
associated discounts and deals, this year's biggest golf push is on course to
persuade even more golfers to 'Drive It Home'.
