When it comes to sport, I am a very nostalgic type of person; especially when asked a question about one of the oldest games going around - THE ART OF GOLF
The traditional home of golf is the Royal and Ancient Club, St. Andrews, Scotland. Over recent years, the tournament has been dominated by American Champions (as shown in the table below)
