EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, James Braid, one of golf's greatest champions, is captured in the midst of play on the newly opened course at Leziate, near Kings Lynn, in 1923. The renowned Scottish golfer, who had already amassed an impressive tally of major titles, including six Open Championships, is seen here teeing off with a confident and focused expression. The pristine fairway stretches out before him, dotted with the occasional tree and lined with lush greenery. The newly constructed clubhouse, a testament to the growing popularity of golf in the region, can be glimpsed in the background. Braid's impeccable golfing attire, complete with plus fours, jumper, and cap, adds to the authenticity of the scene. The serene atmosphere and picturesque setting of Leziate's new course provide the perfect backdrop for Braid's masterful display of skill and precision. This photograph not only captures a moment in time for golfing history but also serves as a reminder of the enduring appeal of the game and the joy it brings to players and spectators alike. James Braid's presence on the course at Leziate further solidified its reputation as a premier golfing destination and added to the rich tapestry of golfing history.
