EDITORS COMMENTS
In this poignant photograph, the Scottish golf team is seen gathered together after their defeat in the Professional International Golf Match of 1936. The team, dressed in their smart golfing attire, exudes a sense of quiet determination and resilience despite their loss. At the center of the image is James Braid, a Scottish golfing legend and one of the most successful players of his time. With a distinguished career that spanned over four decades, Braid had won the Open Championship a record five times, and was a key figure in the Scottish golfing scene. His presence among the defeated team serves as a reminder of the high standards they had strived to meet. The team members, all seated in a semi-circle, pose for the camera with a mix of stoic acceptance and quiet reflection. The setting sun casts long shadows over the scene, adding a sense of melancholy to the moment. The grassy terrain and the backdrop of trees evoke the tranquility and beauty of the golf course, a fitting reminder of the game's enduring allure. The Professional International Golf Match was a highly anticipated event in the golfing calendar, pitting the best professional golfers from Scotland against their counterparts from England and Ireland. The 1936 edition of the tournament saw the Scottish team come up short, but the spirit of camaraderie and sportsmanship on display in this photograph underscores the true essence of the game. This photograph, taken on October 18, 1936, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a bygone era when golf was a cherished leisure activity and a source of pride for the Scottish people. The team's defeated posture may tell a story of loss, but their unwavering commitment to the game shines through in this poignant image.
