Description

Although the origins of golf are widely debated, the game developed and matured in Scotland. On this episode of Simply Scottish, the latest in our Sport in Scotland series, we explore the history of golf. Learn how golf advanced from a short stick and ball pastime to the majestic game it is today. Discover golf's greats with our profiles of past and present players, including Old Tom Morris, Dorothy Campbell, Willie Anderson, and Colin Montgomerie. And join in as we look at Scotland's top golf courses, from the Old Course of St. Andrew to Gleneagles, site of the 2014 Ryder Cup. All this plus music from Sketch, Battlefield Band, Alistair Ogilvy, and Olympic Swimmers.
