Anyone know what the connection is with The Old Course at St Andrews
None, it's just another place for the persevered tour to visit on this fantastic journey.
Took a wee jaunt up to St Andrews this afternoon. It was a unique opportunity to have a photo taken with both trophies. Can't see it happening again.
Didn't see The 2 Kevin's though. That's a pity.
Still a nice day out and stopped of at that chippy in Anstruther on the way back to sample their renowned fish and chips. Excellent!!
Well the claret jug is the oldest championship trophy in golf and the Scottish Cup the oldest in football, so there is a link all right!Quote:

Spent half an hour getting photos. Taking in every detail and generally trying no to greet my eyes out at how bloody gorgeous it looks with green and white ribbons on it.
I had given up the idea of seeing it because i had been so unlucky with working the dates for photos etc. Then it fell into my lap.
Generally made up to have had the chance.
