A SPECIAL CASE

During the last week of August, Phil Keoghan, star host of TV show The Amazing Race, arrived from the USA at Inverclyde to walk across Scotland hitting a golf ball with only a 7 iron. His shortest route to St Andrews was via Hill of Tarvit.
Our picture shows our Greenkeeper Colin Smith preparing the 9th hole for play for the first time in 70 years in Phil's honour. His bogey 5 with a hickory club and without a single practice shot was a fine effort.
