This is the story of golf as it’s never been told before: Mary Queen of Scots cheers herself up at the links at Leith following the murder of her husband Lord Darnley; Dwight D. Eisenhower’s valet shoots the breeze as he clears up the Oval Office following a particularly grueling Presidential putting practice session; and Bob Hope’s chauffeur experiments with some one-liners while waiting for his boss in the clubhouse car park.
The albatrosses, the Big Berthas, the yips and the holes-in-one that have provided the perfect excuse to linger at the 19th hole are amusingly recalled for the delectation of the Fair Isle sweater brigade.
