The Honourable Company of Edinburgh Golfers can lay claim to being the founders of modern golf, having established the first set of competition rules soon after being founded in 1744.

Muirfield has been their home since 1890, and the course has hosted the Open Championship sixteen times - but not since 2013.  The club changed its much-criticised rules and now admits women as members, but it still awaits the return of the Claret Jug to a course regarded as among the best in the world.
