St Andrews Links Trust has welcomed Kevin Mullins on to its Links Management Committee (LMC), following his nomination by Fife Council.
Mr Mullins replaces Drew Renwick, who has retired after a four-year term. The LMC is one of two committees which oversee the work of the Links Trust, the charitable body that administers and maintains the world-famous courses at the Home of Golf.
A well-known figure in St Andrews golfing circles, Mr Mullins, who is a five-handicapper, was educated at Madras College and is a member of the New Golf Club and the St Andrews Golf Club in the town, representing both in team events.
He was centenary captain of the New Club and has also chaired the St Andrews Inter-Club Liaison Committee.
"I am honoured to be put forward for a place on the Links Management Committee," said Mr Mullins. "The LMC plays a very important role in helping to ensure the highest standards are maintained on the Links. I am very much looking forward to becoming a member of the committee."
A retired police officer, Mr Mullins is married with three children and now manages his wife’s dental practice in Cupar.
Councillor Peter Douglas has been re-nominated by Fife Council to serve a second term on the LMC, and Fiona de Vries, who is the current St Rule Club champion, has been re-nominated as a Trustee for a further three years.
