St Andrews & The Kingdom of Fife

St Andrews holds seven courses inside a town you can cross on foot in twenty minutes, which tells you most of what you need to know about how seriously it takes itself. This is where the game began, and where it still insists on being played properly -- from the Old Course's blind approaches to the quieter, equally honest links of Crail, Lundin and Craigtoun.
