Details
Born in St. Andrews, Scotland, Old Tom Morris is considered one of the pioneers of professional golf. He served under Allan Robertson, considered to be the first golf professional. A strong player, Morris won the second British Open and later became a course designer, laying out such venues as Carnoustie, Muirfield. There is currently a road in St Andrews, Fife named after him. The 18th hole on the Old Course at St Andrews is named after Morris in memory of his commitment to the course, and to golf in general. Morris was also the father of modern greens-keeping. He introduced the concept of top-dressing greens and introduced many novel ideas on turf and course management, including actively managing hazards (in the past, bunkers and the like were largely left to their own devices, becoming truly "hazardous").

Available in three sizes, matted or with two custom framing options.
  • Printed on museum quality digital archival print stock. We have chosen the finest quality 100% cotton fine art papers for the best reproduction as well as for their resistance to fading and superior archival performance. We are proud to use the latest generation of pigmented inks to assure the ultimate standard for quality archival papers.
  • The prints are then enclosed in wood frames (Larson-Juhl "Tribeca" Black or "Ansley" Cherry-Brown) using both acid free mats and foam core backing materials that will extend the life of the finished product. The last part of the finishing equation includes UV filtering Plexiglas.
  • The image is printed as large as possible, while maintaining the original image proportions on the paper size that you select. The image is then matted so that the image is presented with a two-to-three inch border on all sides of the image area. Please see “More Images” (above) for details.
