Gopher Watch Competition – October 2021
Sandy’s travels took him to Gloucestershire in England’s south-west in the last issue, to the Old Tom Morris-designed Cleeve Hill course, which was recently saved from closure, thanks to a campaign led by local golfers.
Legendary Getty Images golf photographer David Cannon recognised the shot and was first out of the hat. Congratulations David, perhaps a Cannon shoot of Cleeve is in order?
This month, Sandy has taken advantage of the relaxing of Covid travel restrictions and gone for a summer break in Europe. The course he is visiting is among the top-ranked in its country, and observant readers will note the remains of a centuries-old aqueduct in the background of the photo.
Where is he? Answers, as usual, to gopher@golfcoursearchitecture.net.
