EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the essence of golfing history at the hallowed grounds of St Andrews, Scotland, in October 1905. The image features Scottish golfer James Braid taking a challenging shot at the ninth hole during a major championship tournament. Dressed in the traditional plus fours and cap of the Edwardian era, Braid focuses intently on the ball, his brow furrowed with concentration. The crowd, an expansive sea of hats and umbrellas, watches with bated breath, their faces a mix of anticipation and excitement. The autumnal landscape of St Andrews, with its golden leaves and rolling hills, adds to the serene beauty of the scene. The photograph, taken by the renowned Illustrated London News Ltd, transports us back to a time when golf was a burgeoning sport, attracting players and spectators from all corners of the globe. The image is a testament to the rich history of golf and the enduring allure of St Andrews as the home of the game.
