Andrew has given up his honorary membership, as part of his retreat from public life in the wake of the scandal about his close friendship with the paedophile and sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein.
The course and club are also to come under the management of the St Andrews Links Trust on a long-term lease.
The club’s logo is also being changed, to remove the royal association.
An illustration featuring trees will replace a lion rampant holding a saltire flag.
The trust already runs seven public courses around the Fife town, including the world famous Old Course, which hosts the Open Championship every five years.
Until 5 January, the Duke’s will continue to be run by golf resort operator Kohler, alongside its ownership of the Old Course Hotel.
From then on it will be know as the Craigtoun Course.
