A last minute entry saw me get into Rolex Photographers Open golf event which was being played at the Castle Course in St Andrews.

The longest drive was on the 15th and there was a pretty good marker to beat some 250 yards down the fairway. It was into the wind and as I was hitting my tee shots a good distance, I managed to put a good swing into my drive. It sneaked past the marker by some 25 yards but as there were several groups behind, I thought that it would be bettered.

To my complete surprise I received an phone call from Rolex saying please be at the Rolex hospitality suite at 2.30 for a presentation. I was all ready booked to Shoot some players on the range for SAL so made my apologies that I wouldn’t be able to make it. However I was eventually convinced that I had to be there and made a back up plan for the range shoot.

You can imagine everyones surprise when these 4 legends walked into the room!

It was a very special moment for me made better by my friend and presenter of the cermony Shane O’donoghue’s introduction to these guys and all of the other golf snappers there.
