US property tycoon Donald Trump has confirmed that he has bought the Turnberry golf resort.
He has purchased the entire South Ayrshire complex, including the hotel, from Dubai-based group Leisurecorp for an undisclosed sum.
In a statement, Mr Trump said it was “an honour and privilege to own one of golf’s greatest and most exciting properties”.
Turnberry is the only course in the Open circuit to be owned privately. Mr Trump has ambitions to host the Open at his other course in Aberdeenshire.
In a statement, Mr Trump said: “I intend to invest many millions of dollars (pounds) in order to bring the hotel to the highest levels of luxury.
“When completed, I believe that the Turnberry Hotel will be the finest and most luxurious hotel in all of Europe.”
