Carnoustie (14th Hole) by Peter Munro This magnificent limited edition print by Peter Munro depicts the fourteenth hole at cite of the worlds finest golf courses, Carnoustie. Once described by Walter Hagen as the greatest and toughest course in the British Isles, the links at Carnoustie are one of the most difficult in the world when the wind starts to blow. Famous for the challenging burns which traverse the links and, in particular, for the ever-present Barry Burn which winds its way from fairway to fairway. Carnoustie is also particularly renowned for its tough finishing stretch. The first official club at Carnoustie was founded in 1842, when golf was played over only a ten hole course. The links were later extended by Old Tom Morris to a full eighteen holes but the Course really took shape in 1926 when James Braid made the alterations which enabled Carnoustie to stage its first Open Champions hip in 1931. Some of the great Open Champions at Carnoustie have included Tommy Armour (1931), Ben Hogan (1953) and Tom Watson (1975) There are presently three eighteen hole courses at Carnoustie: the Championship, the Burnside and the Buddon. Peter Munros limited edition shows the Championship Courses infamous fourteenth hole, with the stunning Clubhouse in the background. Because of the shape of its double bunkers, the fourteenth is affectionately nicknamed The Spectacles. |
