EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment of history in the annals of golf, as champions old and new come together to congratulate the winner and runner-up of the News of the World golf tournament at Stoke Poges in September 1937. Ted Ray, a former Open Champion from 1912, and James Braid, a five-time Open Champion from the early 1900s, extend their warmest congratulations to Percy Allis, the triumphant victor, and James Adams, the gracious runner-up. The scene is set against the picturesque backdrop of Stoke Poges Golf Club, with the autumn sun casting long shadows over the fairways and greens. The men, dressed in their formal golfing attire, exude a sense of camaraderie and sportsmanship, reflecting the enduring spirit of the game. This image, taken in the thirties of the 20th century, is a testament to the rich history and tradition of golf, as well as the timeless appeal of a friendly competition between gentlemen.
