Down with King George! was the cry as a group of American golfers joined in the fun at the World Hickory Open at Montrose Golf Links on October 1. Players used hickory-shafted golf clubs from the 1900s to compete on the Medal course at Montrose Links, and dressed in period outfits celebrating the evolution of a game that took the world by storm. Organiser Lionel Freedman said: We have players from around the world, and hickory golf itself has been picking up in numbers over the last few years.
