I'm an avid golfer and a James Bond fan, nice article about both.

I can't stand anything about golf, so you should be pleased when I say that article was FAR more interesting than I was expecting. Of course I was familiar with the golf scene in the movie, but have never read Goldfinger so of course didn't know all the little details and back-stories. Well worth the two minutes of my time this morning.

I wasn't aware Ian Fleming wrote Chitty-Chitty-Bang-Bang.

Wonderful post, interesting and factual.

Being a golf friend since my youth, if I were to actually play my official, US handicap on those old British links courses, it would be surely the best round I've ever played by far.  I do believe, it would be nearly impossible.  

I'd be thrilled there to break 100.
