Today we celebrate the birthday of four-time Open Champion, Tom Morris.

The Royal and Ancient Golf Club of St Andrews commissioned Sir George Reid PPRSA to create a portrait of the "Grand Old Man of Golf" in 1902. This preparatory sketch, which captures Tom's likeness, was donated in 2021 and is on display in our exhibition "Masterstrokes: 200 Years of Scottish Golfing Art".

⛳🗣️ “Kids when they get diagnosed, they often get told what they can’t do. So, I have been the voice speaking about what you can.” – Erika Malmberg

In the first film from The R&A World Golf Museum’s “New Voices” collection, we celebrate neurodiversity in sport. Erika discusses her experience of golf with autism and ADHD and how she uses her platform to bring understanding and awareness to others.

Watch Erika’s full film and the entire “New Voices” collection in the the R&A World Golf Museum's digital guide on Bloomberg Connects or on your next visit to the Museum.
