South Ayrshire Council Provost Winifred Sloan welcomed Tom Watson to South Ayrshire at the 2008 Senior Open Championship that is taking place at the world famous Royal Troon links golf course.

To mark the occasion Provost Sloan presented Tom Watson with a framed picture of the famous 'Postage Stamp', that is situated on the eigth hole at Royal Troon. This is a very tricky hole with a very small putting surface, hence the name the 'Postage Stamp'.

Tom Watson made time during his Senior Open preparations and very busy schedule to talk to a group of over 100 South Ayrshire children. The aspiring young golfers all attend 'clubgolf' coaching as part of the South Ayrshire Junior Golf Action Plan.
