About this listen

Unusually, we've combined two golf clubs into one episode - but they do have something in common.

Musselburgh Old Links was one of the original venues for The Open Championship, but the limitations of its nine-hole layout led to its replacement by Muirfield, and golfers migrated to other courses with more land.

One of those clubs was Royal Musselburgh, a parkland course and very different to Musselburgh Old Links, which sits within Musselburgh racecourse. But their shared history made for an entertaining 27-hole day.
