The Jigger Inn is a pub which overlooks the 17th Road Hole on the Old Course in St Andrews, Fife, Scotland. Jigger Inn dates back to 1852 when it was the station master's lodge for the St Andrews Links railway station.{{cite web|url=https://www.golfmonthly.com/features/what-is-the-jigger-inn|title=What Is The Jigger Inn?|access-date=2022-07-14|work=Golf Monthly|author=Hibbitt, James|date=6 July 2022 |archive-date=2022-07-14|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220714051417/https://www.golfmonthly.com/features/what-is-the-jigger-inn|url-status=live}} The R&A has called it "Arguably the most famous 19th hole in the world",{{cite web|url=https://www.theopen.com/JiggerInn2022|title=Jigger Inn at The Open|access-date=2022-07-14|publisher=The R&A|archive-date=2021-07-26|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210726023028/https://www.theopen.com/JiggerInn2022|url-status=live}} and Golf Monthly calls it "the most famous 19th hole in golf".
