Here is some trivia: the first golf club in the world is this one, The Royal and Ancient Golf Club at St. Andrews. But, do you know where the first golf course was located? Right here in Edinburgh. Oh, and GOLF is an acronym for "Gentlemen Only, Ladies Forbidden."

If I'm not mistaken in the one picture you didn't show on the blog of a threesome teeing off on the 18th, two of the three were women. (If not, then two of them have some "working out" to do, big time in the gym!).

And Jennifer, it should be G.A.L.T.J (gentlemen allow ladies to join)!!
