Golf Chess Pieces

No other sport is as richly endowed with outstanding characters, incidents, and locations as that of golf. Golf's growing popularity really stems from the inauguration of the Open Championship in 1860 and it is from this era to the early 1900s

The President, the Professional, the Secretary, the Lady's Captain they have all been converted to pieces which are familiar to us on the chess board.
