    MEMBERSHIP 8060 MEMBERSHIP 8060 MEMBERSHIP 0000 ORIGINS OF THE PROFESSIONAL GOLFERS’ ASSOCIATION (reviewed May 2012) Introduction The professional golfer has been part of the golf scene for more than 160 years, during which time he has climbed from obscurity to prominence, from a state of servility to a position of independence. The formation in 1901 of The Professional Golfers' Association gave him the power of organisation and thus he began the march toward his present day eminence as guide, mentor and purveyor for golfers and, above all, many have become entertainers in the realm of sport. Geoffrey Cousins (Lords of the Links) The Early Years The forerunners of the present day professionals were artisans, members of the working class. 1603, James I appointed William Mayne official Clubmaker to the King. 1618, James Melville was granted a ballmaking monopoly by the same monarch, James I. 150 years later, a number of craftsmen were employed, expanding the clubmaking and ballmaking trades as the game grew in popularity in Scotland. In 1853, Tom Morris, a prominent artisan golfer, was engaged by the Prestwick Club to maintain the links. In addition, he supplemented his income by making and selling balls and clubs, coaching beginners and playing with members. The beginning of the Club Professional? 1863 saw Tom Morris appointed the first and official Club Professional to the R&A Club at St Andrews. A post he held for 40 years. About the same time, the first competition was launched and titled 'Open to the World' with ten professionals and eight amateurs (all of them Scots!) Prize money was linked in 1864, with a first prize, taken by Tom Morris, of £6.
