On Wednesday 12th November it was a privilege to play golf with two-time major champion Sandy Lyle and four of the touring All Blacks who are in Edinburgh for the Autumn International against Scotland. Ahead of their match on Saturday, Richie McCaw, TJ Perenara, Israel Dagg and Beaudon Barrett utilised their day off to join me for 18 holes on Gullane number 1 – the course due to host the Scottish Open in 2015. Sandy played nine holes with all the players and was generous with his time and comments. Well done to Beaudon for being the All Black to pick up the most stableford points and winning the 2014 Masters cap signed by Sandy. Thanks to Gullane Golf Club for graciously hosting what was a very special day.
