Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Reminiscences of Golf on St. Andrews Links
How different now, when matches are made a week, or even a fortnight, in advance when places are taken early in the morning, and a man is kept with a record to start each in his turn, and so pre vent disputes about the order of play; when play is begun a little after nine, and fifty or sixty matches start between that hour and twelve; when parties have to wait a quarter of an hour for one another at the high hole when an hour or an hour and a half is devoted to lunch, and the second rounds are not begun till between two and half-past three The dinner hour is half-past seven, to give time to have a putting match on the Ladies' Links with the fair and enthusiastic devotees of the game!
