The “Beast from the East” cold snap currently spreading around Europe has transformed St. Andrews into an even more fearsome test of golf. Impossible to play, in fact, as on Wednesday it was covered by a blanket of snow.
As the famous golf Scottish club noted in a tweet, “Current scenes at the Home of Golf. The Road Hole bunker has been filled with snow, as has the Swilcan Burn”.
Other courses around Scotland were also enveloped in snow and closed for play.
