Day Three: Old Course

St. Andrews Old Course tee time: 7:20 AM

"To win at St Andrews is the ultimate." Tiger Woods

Monday was our planned round at the Old Course. Another great round - this time with caddies. Mike's caddie, Dave, has looped for Tony Stewart and Bill Clinton - among others.

Day One: Arrive in Scotland

After debarking the plane, we toured the Edinburgh Castle.









We then drove from Edinburgh to St. Andrews in our rental van.
Upon arriving in St. Andrews, the four of us emptied our clubs from our luggage and walked down the street to the first tee at the Old Course. The starter said the magic words, "You're next." We teed off at 5:30 PM and had a great (and unexpected) first round in Scotland.
