The system has been welcomed by low handicap golfers as they do not need to re-align between each stroke and they can practice at a faster rate. For older golfers, the benefit lies in the fact they do not have to bend down in between each stroke to place the ball on the tee and can give greater concentration to their swing.
Alan McGregor, General Manager of St Andrews Links Trust said: "We have around 75,000 people using the Centre every year and the new tees are proving a winner."
The new service is available to all golfers visiting the St Andrews Links Golf Practice Centre at no additional cost.
