David and Frank are two of just seven men since 1851 to have appeared on the same list of Head Professionals as Old Tom Morris.

A distinction they both deeply cherish.

While The Open has not returned to our links since 1925, Championship golf has continued to flourish here ever since.

Here are some images from the 1987 Amateur Championship, won by Paul Mayo, who was part of the GB&I Walker Cup team that same year.

One hundred and seventy-five years of history has bestowed our links with some distinguished hole names, and here are the favourites of our Caddy Master and Head Pro.

What is your favourite?

While many associate Old Tom with our links, James Ogilvy Fairlie was arguably the most important figure in our history.

Upon his death, the committee minuted: "...the members desire to express their sincere regret at the loss of one who may justly be looked upon as the Founder of the Club and whose untiring zeal & constant exertions on its behalf the present prosperous position of the Club is largely due."

Our 12th hole dates back to 1882, when the course was extended to 18 holes.

Its exceptional green is fiercely protected by two hungry bunkers at the front, making for one of the day's most exhilarating approach shots - and one that's important to get right at this stage in a match.

The 12th marks the conclusion of play on the 'new' land, before your return to the original site for the closing stretch.

While many regard 13 as the start of our famous finish, 'Wall' is a hole of such quality that it merits equal standing in that prestigious company.

We remain deeply honoured that Bernard Darwin, golf's most celebrated chronicler, bestowed considerable praise upon our club and course.

Here are some extracts from his 1938 account.

The annual cross-country match between Prestwick and Royal Troon is a cherished tradition. Members of both clubs are invited to experience two of the world's finest links in a single day, separated by a long lunch that is very much part of the occasion.

We look forward to another great match in just over a months time.

Anne Bennett was a long-serving member of the Prestwick team and, after her passing, her husband David, our Executive Chef, compiled a club recipe book to raise funds in her memory.

To this day it continues to sell well and serves as a wonderful, unique memento of a visit to our Club.
