Golfing history is getting a spectral spin in a new book called ‘Haunted Golf Courses: A Tour of the World’s Most Mysterious Fairways.

Aimed at golf enthusiasts, history buffs and lovers of the paranormal, the book, which was written by established paranormal author and investigator Lee Brickley, who invites readers to venture onto the hallowed grounds of the world’s most iconic golf courses, uncovering their hidden, haunted histories.

Each of the book’s 21 chapters focuses on a different course, from the revered Augusta National to the Old Course at St Andrews. The stories are not just about spectral sightings, but also about the human stories intertwined with these hauntings, the history of the courses, the people who have walked their fairways, and the communities that have grown around them.

The book also explores the eerie narratives that punctuate the world of golf – stories of spectral golfers playing their eternal rounds, ghostly caddies assisting the unsuspecting, and the unexplained phenomena that echo across the fairways long after the sun has set. Each story, backed by first-hand accounts from those who have had these supernatural experiences, adds an intriguing layer to the rich tapestry of golf’s legacy.
