In “honour” of next week’s Open Championship, the writers at the game’s leading website-joined by George Peper, one of the game’s best-known journalists-name the courses that put the “Great” in Great Britain
Portland, Ore. (July 5, 2011) – Wherever on the globe that golfers flail, once a year they turn collective sights and souls toward the Open Championship (which cognoscenti never call The British Open), held in 2011 at Royal St. George’s Golf Club in southeastern England.
This month, the writers at The A Position are also gazing fondly across the Atlantic, and using the opportunity to name their favorite golf venues in England, Scotland, Ireland, and Wales.
Their picks range from the famous to the nearly unknown. Their reasons include chest-deep bunkers and nearby pubs, seaside locations and centuries of tradition, illogical mounding and indescribable magic.
Joining our A Listers is George Peper, one of the game’s most respected writers. The former editor-in-chief of Golf Magazine, author of dozens of books, and now editor of LINKS Magazine, Peper has not only played around the world, but his home is in the home of golf: St. Andrews, Scotland. He’s also a member of the R&A.
