It’s official: Topgolf is coming to Glasgow.

Glasgow Life is reporting that South Lanarkshire Council approved proposals by Topgolf International to build the multi-level golf and entertainment complex on Cambuslang Road in Rutherglen earlier today.

Plans for the huge complex included 72 hitting bays over three tiers, an open air roof terrace and bar with seating for 70 people.
