The scene unfolds against a backdrop of an enthusiastic crowd gathered around the clubhouse, eagerly watching every move with anticipation. Spectators line up along the course, their eyes fixed on these skilled sportsmen who have become legends in their own right. This snapshot from over a century ago offers us a glimpse into not only the sport itself but also into Scottish culture and heritage.
