James Braid was a five-time Open champion who designed or revised more than 400 courses in his lifetime around the British Isles. Carnoustie, Brora and Dunbar are among links associated with Braid in Scotland. But it’s a Braid links just south of the border in North-East England that entranced me on a trip last year to play courses of architectural merit I had never seen before.
