EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the birthplace of golf and witness the timeless tradition of the game as it was played over a century ago. In this evocative image from Mary Evans Picture Library, a golfer takes a moment of focus and determination before driving the ball down the fairway of the Old Course at St Andrews, Scotland, in 1881. The historic town of St Andrews, the spiritual home of golf, has been attracting enthusiasts since the game's inception in the 15th century. The golfer, dressed in the fashion of the era, stands poised with a hickory-shafted club in hand, ready to make contact with the ball. His caddy, dressed in a traditional Scottish plaid, watches attentively, ready to offer advice or assistance. The Old Course, with its rolling hills, undulating fairways, and iconic Swilcan Bridge, stretches out before them, providing a challenging and picturesque backdrop. This photograph, taken over a century ago, offers a glimpse into the rich history of golf and the enduring appeal of the sport. The Old Course at St Andrews remains a must-visit destination for golfers and history buffs alike, a testament to the game's storied past and its enduring allure. As you gaze upon this image, imagine the sounds of the sea in the distance, the gentle breeze in your hair, and the thrill of a perfect drive on one of the most iconic courses in the world. This moment in time, frozen in a photograph, invites us to appreciate the history and beauty of golf and the enduring connection it has to its origins in St Andrews, Scotland.
