Re-Building Hell on the Old Course


In the build-up to the 2015 Open Championship on the Old Course in St. Andrews the greenkeepers have been busy with their preparations for the tournament over the last couple of years and it will continue over this winter period.

When golfing at St. Andrews last weekend I snapped this photograph of the gargantuan Hell bunker, on the 619 yard Par 5 14th (523 yard for the local golfers), that is being re-built using the revetting method employed by the greenkeepers. The bunker sits 115 yards short of the green's front edge with the town of St. Andrews as a backdrop.
