People who know nothing about golf probably assume that the Royal and Ancient Golf Club, the oldest in the world, is the last word in snobbery. Not so.The famous Old Course at St Andrews is open to all comers and is criss-crossed by public paths, giving it an agreeable democratic air, with children and dog-walkers mingling with golfers.On a fine summer day it must be one of the most beautiful sporting settings in the world, with a sea breeze stiffening the flags and the beach running along the links. It makes golf seem suddenly rather romantic, and not just a displacement activity for men in silly pullovers.Although it is the golf course that makes St Andrews a place of pilgrimage, the ancient university, dating back to the 15th century, would grace any town, with the weather-beaten old collages and shiny, well-scrubbed students.History is all around, from the ruins of the 12th century cathedral at the eastern edge of the town to the equally dilapidated castle, built a century later.What you might not necessarily like about itSt Andrews probably boasts the biggest concentration of golfers in Britain. You cannot move in the town centre in the evening without overhearing talk of bunkers and birdies and fluffed chips. It might get wearing after the first few hours, unless you are an avid golfer yourself.Golf dominates the shops almost as much as conversation. Even Oxfam has second-hand seven-irons in the window. Other outlets are limited in consequence.Another blot on the landscape is the fighter jets roaring in and out of RAF Leuchars, drowning out the seagulls.Text originates from the Daily Telegraph and journalist Max Davidson--------------------------------------------------------------------------------Other statements & factsThe weatherman who can predict the weather for the whole day at St Andrews does not exist.There is a tv camera hidden in the Road Hole bunker.The train was still running along the 16th fairway from Leuchars when Arnold Palmer first played the Open at St Andrews in 1960.At his first appearance at the Open in St Andrews, Gary Player spent the night in the dunes, wrapped in his rain gear.
