Description
The Old Course at St. Andrews is the oldest golf course in the world. There is no real understanding of when golf was first played over the grounds that now constitute the Old Course. The earliest written evidence was a licence issued in 1552, which permitted the community to rear rabbits on the links and “play at golf, futball, schuteing … with all other manner of pastimes.” The first written record of golf being played at the Old Course dates to 1574, which would make the Old Course the fifth-oldest links golf site in Scotland.
