290,000 fans face test at St Andrews, LIV Golf prices look steep and joy for Greig Hutcheon - The Scotsman Golf Show

This year’s 150th Open will be attended by a record 290,000 spectators at St Andrews, but what will their experience be like on the Old Course, where viewing isn’t the best at ground level?

And will fans attending the first LIV Golf Invitational Series event at The Centurion Club near St Albans be getting value for money for day passes costing around £68 when daily admission for the Genesis Scottish Open in East Lothian is £30-£40?

Sports editor Mark Atkinson puts those questions to our golf correspondent Martin Dempster in the latest edition of The Scotsman Golf Show, which also looks at the distinct possibility of Tiger Woods playing in next month’s US PGA Championship after playing a practice round at Southern Hills in Tulsa on Thursday.
