EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the indomitable spirit of golfers James Braid and Archie Compston in the final round of the News of the World Match-Play Championship at Walton Heath in 1927. Amidst the torrential rain of the English 1920s, the two golfing legends put on a heroic display of sportsmanship and determination. The scene is set on the final green, where Braid, a five-time Open Champion and course designer, and Compston, a two-time British Amateur Champion, face off in a tense and closely contested match. The rain pelts down, turning the once pristine green into a muddy, uneven surface. Yet, the finalists remain undeterred, their focus unwavering as they prepare for the decisive putt. Despite the challenging conditions, both players demonstrate remarkable poise and skill. Braid, with a steely gaze, lines up his putt, while Compston, with a determined expression, waits patiently for his turn. The caddies, bundled up against the elements, offer support and encouragement. This photograph is a testament to the resilience and dedication of these two golfing greats. In the face of adversity, they show that the game, and the spirit of competition, can endure even the harshest of conditions. The image, captured by the renowned Illustrated London News Ltd, is a timeless reminder of the heroic efforts and unwavering determination that define the world of golf.
