St. Andrews golf course. One of the oldest golf courses in history. As the home of golf, winning on this golf course means so much to all of the players. This year The Open Championship was played there and many players were at the will of the course. Known for its unpredictable weather, fifty mile an hour winds, lightning storms, and flat out R.A.I.N., this course challenges even the best of golfers. The picture to the left shows a sand-filled pit which, in golf, is called a Bunker. They can be up to six feet deep and almost impossible to get out of. The fairways at St. Andrews appear so inviting and can seem so easy to hit, but when all the elements are against you that fairway can turn into an "unpredictable Goliath". My goal and dream is to play in a professional tournament there so I'd better get back to practice!
Nice blog!
ReplyDeleteCool! I know I'll see you on the telly someday playing in a pro tournament. I, of course, will be watching from my flat in London!
ReplyDeleteThose St. Andrews bunkers are I.N.T.E.N.S.E.! Maybe we can play a round of golf next time we visit -- I hear you're playing really well. Looking forward to reading more of your posts! :)
