Days like Tuesday serve as a reminder that, despite the current professional climate, the real game as we know it is still alive and kicking. On the 100th year anniversary of the infamous Molves vs US Walker Cup team match at @WokingGolf that saw Bobby Jones and Francis Ouimet’s side whitewashed in the morning foursomes thanks to the Moles hospitality the night prior, eight Amercan’s made the voyage to relive the match, reignite friendships, and celebrate a piece of golfing history. Keep an eye out for our YouTube film on the day next month.

*Correction - it was the Moles who once again came out on top, but the Americans avoided the AM whitewash that the hangovers caused 100 years ago.

100 years later and the photo has been recreated. Thankfully for the Americans, this version of the team avoided the famous hangovers that derailed their predecessors and got the job done instead.

One of the game’s great stories turns 100 tomorrow - the infamous 1926 Moles vs USA match at @WokingGolf. The American side, preparing for the Walker Cup and featuring Bobby Jones (left) and Francis Ouimet (middle right), enjoyed the London hospitality a little too much the night before, and likely not as well trained at hungover golf as the Moles, promptly lost the morning foursomes 5–0 and eventually the match as well. A century later, the fixture is being replayed, with another American side assembled to face the Moles, including a dinner in London tonight to ensure this wonderfully chaotic chapter in Beritish folklore is properly recreated.

The 7th green at @TheAddingtonGC pre-restoration vs post-restoration. A 5x increase from roughly 4,000ft² to 20,000ft² 🤯

@mikeclaytongolf @cookiejargolf @RamsayGolf @TheAddingtonGC I'm not so sure that I like US-style huge greens, especially if they have fiendish slopes. Not completely sold on the double greens on the Old Course at St Andrews either, as I prefer the artistry of the chip shot, as against the 30 yard putt.

Our PGA Championship recap pod is out now - an hour long reflection of the course setup and bunched leaderboard to the unlikely, but hugely popular winner. A lot of people seemed to come away calling it forgettable, but we actually thought it was a great championship. 🎧 apple.co/3RPdRN2

Ryan Noades and the guys at @cdpgolf1 have done something rarely seen in golf course architecture these days - they've created a totally unique, one-of-a-kind hole. The scale of the restored 7th at @TheAddingtonGC has to be seen to be believed - over 100 yards of green with pin positions that will have matchplay opponents rubbing their hands with glee. We can't wait to take it on at our Summer Meeting next month.

One of the 32 lcuky attendees at last month’s Spring Meeting was our Amateur Correspondent, Hugo Cornell. Two days at Birkdale and Formby, surrounded by good people, good food and plenty of golf, was always likely to leave an impression, and Hugo has captured it brilliantly in his latest piece. 📖 bit.ly/4faybSH

And while the above photos were bullets well spent, there were of course some wastes too… Can’t wait to be back in this magic golf town in September for the Walker Cup. 🧵8/8

Like a kid on a holiday, we gave Peter a £16 disposable camera for our trip to Lahinch last month. He had 27 bullets to burn across two days, and here’s how he got on 👇 🧵1/8
