There is no real understanding of when golf was first played over the grounds that now constitute the Old Course. The earliest written evidence
was a licence issued in 1552, which permitted the community to rear rabbits on the links and "play at golf, futball, schuteing ... with all other
manner of pastimes." The first written record of golf being played at the Old Course dates to 1574, which would make the Old Course the fifth-oldest
links golf site in Scotland.

St Andrews Golf Course
The Old Course at St Andrews is the oldest
golf course in the world. The Old Course is a public course over common land in St Andrews, Fife, Scotland and is held in trust by The St Andrews
Links Trust under an act of Parliament. The Royal and Ancient Golf Club of St Andrews (R&A) club house sits adjacent to the first tee, although it
is but one of many clubs that have playing privileges on the course, along with the general public. On some Sundays, the course turns into a park
for all the townspeople who come out to stroll, picnic and otherwise enjoy the grounds
