EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "A Family Affair: The Frame's at the 1949 Burhill Foursomes Tournament, Walton-on-Thames" This photograph, captured in the idyllic setting of Burhill Golf Course near Walton-on-Thames in 1949, portrays a cherished moment in the history of the Worplesdon Golf Club. The Frame family, proud members of the esteemed club, are seen taking part in the annual Foursomes Tournament. Foursomes is a popular team golf format where two players form a team and each player hits only one ball per hole. The team members alternate shots, with the objective of recording the lowest score possible for each hole. In this image, the Frames display a harmonious blend of skill, determination, and camaraderie as they navigate the lush greens and fairways of Burnill, the picturesque course that has been a fixture of the Walton-on-Thames community since the early 20th century. The father, dressed in a smart golfing attire, stands confidently behind his son, who focuses intently on his swing. The mother, with a caddy in tow, offers encouragement and guidance to her daughter, who poises herself to take her shot. The family's unity and shared passion for the sport are palpable, as they engage in friendly competition with their fellow club members. This photograph is a testament to the rich history of golf in Walton-on-Thames and the enduring appeal of this timeless pastime. The Frame family's participation in the Burhill Foursomes Tournament in 1949 serves as a reminder of the joy and camaraderie that golf has brought to generations of players and their families. As we admire this historical image, we are transported back in time to a simpler era, where family, golf, and community intertwined in perfect harmony on the verdant fairways of Burhill Golf Course.
