Old Tom Morris at the Swilcan Bridge 'Keeper of the Greens' Mixed Metal Statue by Michael Roche

Offered here is a mixed metal sculpture from Michael Roche. Old Tom Morris is shown on the Swilcan Bridge on the Old Course at St. Andrews. The sculpture has become detached from the wooden base, with scrapings on wood present. Repair has not been performed. Old Tom Morris was a key figure in golf in the 1860's, and his life revolved around golf up until his death in 1908. He won the Open Championship four times (1861, 1862, 1864, and 1867) and he and his son, Young Tom Morris, are some of the most recognizable names in golf.

11" tall with a base measuring 11 1/4" x 7 1/2"
