David Scott is well known in golfing circles - not just at home but far beyond the boundaries of north-east Fife.

The St Andean and British PGA Captain was recently appointed as Honorary Professional of The Royal & Ancient Golf Club, a prestigious role held by only five others in its history. 

We were delighted when David agreed to be our first interviewee of our newly rebranded podcast - WhoWhereWhatWhenWhyAndHowNow 

We caught up with David at Dumbarnie Links to chat about golf, life, his career including the transformative work of the charity, Caddie School for Soldiers, as well as radiators! 

Born and raised in St Andrews, we take a journey through his earliest days on the course with his school pals through his first role at Blairgowrie, then onto Letham Grange and Balbirnie Park Golf Club before he landed the role of Director of Golf at Kingsbarns.

We cover his time at the five red star Old Course Hotel, Golf Resort & Spa - including his time in housekeeping!

And then his move to Dumbarnie in 2020 where he is General Manager of the award-winning links. 

Oh. And did I mention … I’m a magician with a putter? 😉
