Royal Aberdeen (18th Hole) by
Peter Munro Golf as it is known and played around the world today
first took shape on the low-lying links of Scotlands east coast. The
sport officially had its beginnings in Aberdeen in 1780 and the Royal
Aberdeen Golf Club was founded in 1815, making it the sixth oldest club in
the world. Set on the windswept moors, Balgownie Links were laid
out by the famous golfer, Robert Simpson, using £100 raised by members of
the club. The course offers a mixture of hoary grass and sand and was
described by the most prolific golf writer of all, Bernard Darwin, as
"much more than a good golf course, a noble links".
Blairgowrie (18th Hole) by
Peter Munro Old Tom Morris played in the first match at
Blairgowrie and commented: I think that this is the most beautiful
inland green I have ever seen. Typical of the three courses at the
club are the beautiful heathland fairways, which are lined with forests of
pine and silver birch, and the surrounding carpet of purple heather, broom
and gorse. The Rosemount Course measures 6590 yards from the
medal tees and has been described as one of the most enchanting rounds of
golf in the world. The famous eighteenth hole, nicknamed 'Mount Blair', is
a 390 yard par 4 and this is the subject of Peter's painting. |
