Hollywood star Tom Holland was recently in Scotland filming the latest Spider-Man<\/a> blockbuster. Crowds flocked to Glasgow city centre where some of the streets have been transformed into New York for some explosive scenes<\/a>.<\/p>\n The English actor, 29, is starring in Spider-Man: Brand New Day, the fourth Spidey film within the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Filming kicked off in Glasgow last week and the star has already been spotted greeting fans between takes in the city, which is doubling for Manhattan\u2019s urban sprawl.<\/p>\n While Holland is best known for swinging between skyscrapers as the web-slinging superhero, he also has a well-documented passion for a very different pursuit, golf<\/a>.<\/p>\n A keen player and frequent competitor in celebrity pro-am events, Holland rarely passes up the chance for a round, and Scotland, the home of golf, offers him no shortage of options.<\/p>\n Filming in Glasgow<\/a> offers a particular perk for the actor: proximity to one of his favourite courses in the world, Scottish Daily Express<\/a> reports.<\/p>\n Just over 30 minutes from the city lies Loch Lomond<\/a> Golf Club, an ultra-exclusive course that Holland praised as possibly the \u201cbest course I\u2019ve ever played\u201d after a visit in 2019.<\/p>\n Content cannot be displayed without consent<\/p>\n Set on the banks of the world-famous loch, the course is nestled within 600 acres of parkland and natural beauty. Designed by Jay Morrish and Open champion Tom Weiskopf, it opened in 1993 and hosted the Scottish Open multiple times until 2010.<\/p>\n The course weaves through land designated as sites of scientific interest, using natural hazards and terrain to create a challenging layout.<\/p>\n Loch Lomond is routinely ranked among the top 100 courses in the world and is known for its immaculate conditions and breathtaking setting.<\/p>\n Fairways are framed by mountains to the west and the shimmering waters of the loch to the east, providing a dramatic backdrop to every hole.<\/p>\n Part of what keeps Loch Lomond in pristine condition is its exclusivity. It is not open to the public and operates strictly as a private members\u2019 club. According to reports, initial registration fees start at around \u00a3125,000.<\/p>\n Even Spider-Man cannot just walk on and tee off, guests must be invited by one of the club\u2019s relatively few members, most of whom are not based in the UK.<\/p>\n The club\u2019s website describes it as a \u201csanctuary\u201d, and it has become a quiet haven for those who gain access.<\/p>\n Holland had the chance to play a round at the scenic 18 back in 2019. Posting a shot of him smashing the ball of the tee on Instagram, he said: “Nothing but big shots at Loch Lomond golf club today.<\/p>\n “Possibly the best course I\u2019ve ever played. Thank you so much for having us and thanks dad for the trip. Needed this!”<\/p>\n The post has racked up 3.6million likes, with most of them coming in the first 24 hours. Tom’s comic book writer commented that he “deliberately played badly”, suggesting he didn’t have quite as good a round as his superhero son.<\/p>\n Get the latest news sent straight to your messages by joining our WhatsApp community today.<\/p>\n You’ll receive daily updates on breaking news as well as the top headlines across Scotland.<\/p>\n No one will be able to see who is signed up and no one can send messages except the Daily Record team.<\/p>\n All you have to do is click here if you’re on mobile<\/a>, select ‘Join Community’ and you’re in!<\/p>\n If you’re on a desktop, simply scan the QR code above with your phone and click ‘Join Community’.<\/p>\n We also treat our community members to special offers, promotions, and adverts from us and our partners.

Tom Weiskopf called it \u201cmy lasting memorial to golf\u201d, while American champion Phil Mickelson once described it as a \u201cwonderful stage\u201d.<\/p>\n Meanwhile parts of Glasgow have been transformed into a New York scene as filming continues for Spider-Man: Brand New Day<\/a>. Dramatic footage has captured the Marvel superhero leaping from building to building<\/a> during a thrilling police chase.<\/p>\n The city has been buzzing for days as the cast and crew arrived, with lead star Tom Holland spotted waving to delighted crowds on Sunday, August 3.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The course, designed by Jay Morrish and Tom Weiskopf, sits beside a beauty spot and hosted the Scottish…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":49505,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[39],"tags":[23280,679,5904,8823,101,56,54,55],"class_list":{"0":"post-49504","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-golf","8":"tag-discover-scotland","9":"tag-glasgow","10":"tag-golf","11":"tag-loch-lomond","12":"tag-sports","13":"tag-uk","14":"tag-united-kingdom","15":"tag-unitedkingdom"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/49504","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=49504"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/49504\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/49505"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=49504"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=49504"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=49504"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\"Tom](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/1_Tom-H-wavingjfif.jpg\")
