Old Photograph Road Hole St Andrews Fife Scotland
Old photograph of a golfer on the Road Hole on the Old Golf Course in St Andrews, Fife, Scotland. This one of the one of the world's most famous golf holes. Golfers using the back tees cannot see where their tee shots land; which is not unusual except that they must take aim over a corner of The Old Course Hotel. Other than rough, the main hazard in front of the green is a sand trap known as the Road Hole Bunker. Over the back of the green, hazards include a tarmac roadway, as well as an old stone wall. Both are in play; a wayward shot can lead a player to take their next stroke off the roadway or to hit the face of the wall and take their chances with the ensuing bounce.
