Story

Two members of the team responsible for bunkered - Scotland's only golf magazine - are gearing up to attempt playing 100 holes of golf in just one day for Yorkhill Children's Charity

Tom Lovering, the director of parent company PSP Publishing Ltd, and assistant editor Michael McEwan will take on the marathon feat on June 22 this year at Kingsbarns Golf Links.

Their challenge will involve playing the famous links course near St Andrews five-and-a-half times, which won't be as much fun as it sounds, as they expect to playing golf continuously from 4am until 10pm, covering around 23 miles on foot in the process.

The duo will also be joined by two different guests for each of their five full rounds as they attempt to raise thousands of pounds for Yorkhill Children’s Charity.

THAT'S WHERE YOU COME IN...

Anything you can donate to the guys' cause will be massively appreciated and will help raise vital funds for Yorkhill.

However, if you make a minimum donation of £10, you will have the opportunity to guess how many shots in total it will take the duo to complete the 100 holes. 

Kingsbarns is a par-72 course. That equates to a total combined par over the five-and-a-half rounds of 792. 

Michael plays off 15 and Tom is off 8. 

The person whose guess is closest to the final score will win a fourball at Kingsbarns Golf Links* - but remember... you need to make a minimum donation of £10 to be eligible. 

Simply leave your guess in the 'Message' section when making your donation - and thanks for chipping in!

* In the event of two of more people tying for the correct score or closest guess to it, the winner will be drawn at random.
