"I am sure all of you junior players associated with St Andrews Links Junior Golf Association realise what a wonderful place you have to play and train.

I enjoyed spending time both playing golf at St Andrews as well as visiting the Golf Academy. I hope all of you work hard on your game so you can become the best you can be and who knows, maybe we'll get to play together some day!!

Enjoy the game and have fun with it.”
