Scottish Senior Men’s Open - Day 1🏆
It wasn’t just Kevin Parkes’ golf that was eye-catching this morning @BruntsfieldG
The Englishman always brings a splash of colour to the fairways - with wife Wendy choosing his shirts!
Today the wise old owl posted a 70 (-1) and it proved a popular score.🦉
Dunnikier Park’s Derek Paton, the 2023 champion, and Gullane’s Duncan Low joined Kevin on -1 which remains the clubhouse lead.
The local wildlife are also out in force! 🦌

Welcome to Day 1 of the Scottish Senior Men’s Open ⛳️🏆
We’re at the stunning @BruntsfieldG in Edinburgh for this year’s championship.
144 of the game’s leading male senior amateurs will do battle for the historic trophy over the next three days.
Can England’s John Kennedy retain his title or will one of the 66 Scots in the field make it a home win for the first time since 2023?
