Golf for Argyll

Yesterday was the day. Old Tom Morris would have been relieved to see the course he designed at Askernish on South Uist and described as ’staggering’, now back from serial use as croft and airfield and restored as one of the world’s best links courses. Kenny Dalglish, beloved of Scotland’s football fans, opened the course and agreed to be the Club’s Honorary President. Being a celebrity has a lot to commend it if you get to do things like this.
