I can beat that one easily
Involves two car journeys, two flights (one being a trans atlantic one) and a change in timezone.

And Alex has done it . . .
Twice!
Plus, he's been my personal guide -- and Mrs. Yoda's, too! -- when we've been on his side of the pond. He coordinated my teaching gigs at Gleddoch House in Langbank and World of Golf in Glasgow (where we later visited his favorite haunt . . . an Italian restaurant! ). Along the way, he served admirably as part of our 'evening' crew with Brian Gay and Kip Henley at Cameron House in Loch Lomond. Not to mention being my gallery bud at The Barclays Scottish Open and my golf partner at Dundonald, Carnoustie and St. Andrews.

For those with a keen eye, the picture 3 is actually from Carnoustie (I am standing atop of one of the Spectacle Bunkers on the 14th Hole) rather than St Andrews. A long hole on a normal day but we were playing it downwind that day so it was driver and 8 iron for a 480 yard par 5 (Yoda wouldn't believe his caddie when he was told to hit the 8 iron from 170 yards)
Hell's Bunker makes this one look easy
I remember the 17th at St Andrews as the sun was just setting in the background you could see the shadows forming on the 1st/18th hole and the shadow of the Old Course Hotel falling onto the 17th fairway. Awesome stuff. Also Yoda fancied having a play in the road hole bunker too
That was an awesome week getting to hang out with Mr and Mrs Yoda as well as getting to meet Brian and Kip.
Thanks again Yoda, looking forward to seeing you next summer for the Scottish Open

We need to sort out a Tee Time for Turnberry next year and I have now got a contact at Royal Troon. I mean I am not sure if you want to play these goat tracks or not
