The image showcases a group of skilled golfers preparing for a game that is about to commence. In the foreground, we see Hay Wemyss poised and ready to take his swing, exuding confidence and determination. Standing on the far left is none other than Old Tom Morris, who would later become an open champion. A legendary figure in golfing history, he adds an air of prestige and expertise to this scene. Carrying clubs in the center is Allan Robertson, a professional golfer known for his exceptional skills on the green. The composition of this photograph beautifully captures both the serenity and excitement that surround this beloved sport. The lush greenery of St Andrew's serves as a picturesque backdrop while also highlighting the natural beauty of Scotland.
