Coming Home at Muirfield

The Fried Egg concludes its Eclectic UK 18 with an examination of the closing hole at Muirfield. The hole has capped sixteen Open Championships, yet the history is just part of the story here.

The advent of Instagram has given those who shoot golf courses for a living a platform to inspire the rest of us on a daily basis. From Bandon to Ballybunion, Tara Iti to Turnberry, a number of course photogs criss-cross the globe and take armchair golf travelers along for the ride. Here’s 10 photographers who we follow for a little inspiration in the newsfeed.

It should come as no surprise that many of Liverpool’s most famous attractions center around the Fab Four. From the famous Cavern Club – where the band appeared nearly 300 times early in its career – to the immersive Beatles Story museum, fans of The Beatles will find Liverpool to be a perfect pairing with the links of England’s Golf Coast.

And speaking of Muirfield… This week’s off-season throwback comes courtesy of the 2016 Expedition led by John Dimmer from Tacoma Country & Golf Club. Proving that a trip to the Coffin Bunker during afternoon foursomes will test even the best of friendships.
