  • Henry Cotton, MBE. the Public Schoolboy Who Changed the Face of Professional Golf
    Henry Cotton, MBE. The public schoolboy who changed the face of professional golf. Barred from a clubhouse, he picknicked from the boot of his Rolls Royce out of a hamper from Fortnum & Masons. Married to an Argentinian heiress Sir Henry Cotton lived life as he loved it - luxuriously and to the full. Friend of Kings, partner to Princes, no one has done more to bring the game within reach of all levels of society. The year ended sadly with the death of one of golf's greatest characters, Thomas Henry Cotton, a month short of his 81st birthday. Controversial to the very end, Henry will no doubt revel in his last poser to officialdom, whether he will in future be referred to as "the late Sir Henry Cotton" or just plain Henry Cotton MBE. At least the long awaited recognition was given to him and he knew a month before he died. No man gave more or fought harder for the professional game and this applies not only to golfers but greenkeepers as well. Latterly, his playing days over, he took an increasing interest in course design and maintenance and was a regular visitor to new constructions and irrigation schemes all over the country, discussing with a considerable depth of knowledge the needs of the greenkeeper. Although spending winters at his beloved Penina, Henry made England his home for the summer to attend the Open Championship and Test Matches at the Oval and Lords. In between he squeezed in his personal appearances, usually for a fat fee - and who can blame him! The stories of Cotton are legendary and no doubt someone is already compiling a best seller of his life interspersed with a host of anecdotes.

  • Reciprocal Golf Conditions the Musselburgh Golf Club
    INTRODUCTION The town of Musselburgh has a long association with the game of golf having hosted The Open Championship on the links course on six occasions in the 1870's and 1880's. The town can also boast having five Open Champions, who between them, won eleven championships - more than any other town. When The Honourable Company of Edinburgh Golfers moved to Muirfield from their home at the 9 hole Links Course in 1891, they took with them the venue for the Open. In an attempt to re- establish its association with the Open, Musselburgh Town Council decided to build an 18 hole championship golf course in the town. Unfortunately it was not until the 1930's that suitable land became available and the 5 times Open Champion James Braid, who, in his later years became a renowned golf course architect, was commissioned to design the new course at Monktonhall. He designed a championship standard course, which at 6725 yards long is a true test of golf for even the most accomplished golfer. The new course was officially opened by a fourball of James Braid, Percy Alliss, Henry Cotton and Alf Padgham on 10th May 1938 and has been the home of The Musselburgh Golf Course ever since. For 70 years the layout of the course has remained virtually unchanged, a fact which bears testament to the ability and foresight of its designer. During these years the course has hosted many amateur championships and on two occasions the Scottish Professional Championship. At 6725 yards long and with tree lined fairways and a burn that comes into play at 5 holes, the course is an interesting challenge to all levels of golfer.

The first was a group lesson on holding and swinging the club, along with the basic rules of golf and etiquette from Bill Kozak when I was 12 years of age.
