Harry Styles is currently jetting around the world on tour for his latest Grammy-winning album, Harry’s House, but given some of the photos coming out of Scotland this week you’d think he entered some type of Pro-Am golf tournament.
Ahead of two shows in Edinburgh this weekend, Styles popped over to St. Andrews — the home of golf — on Thursday to get a quick round in at the iconic public course. It did not take long for fans to learn what was going on and rush over to the grounds to catch a glimpse of Styles on the links.
By the time he reached the 18th green, so many people had packed in around The Old Course it looked like a full blown Open Championship was going on.

On the one hand, it might not have been the most fun for Harry to play a round on his off day with a massive crowd following his every move. It’s not like he’s a professional golfer used to these environments. Then again…he’s not a professional golfer!
Think about how absolutely thrilling it would be to not only get to play St. Andrews but also experience the same environment the best in the world get during major championships. Walking up the fairway on No. 18 with the crowd cheering you on is daydream material. It doesn’t get much cooler than that. You’ve also got to imagine the adrenaline of playing in front of that big of a crowd added some extra distance to his drives.
The moral of the story here is that more prestigious courses should open their doors to the public. Looking at you, Augusta National.
