In our latest podcast, we sit down with David Scott, General Manager at Dumbarnie Golf Links, for a fascinating and wide-ranging conversation.
David shares what makes the Dumbarnie experience so special, how he built a first-class team, and the journey that's taken him to the top of Scottish golf. From his early days at Rosemount and Kingsbarns to looking after The Duke's, and the unexpected call from Herb Kohler that changed everything, it's a story of hard work, listening, and finding your path.
Recently appointed Captain of the PGA (2025/26) and Honorary Professional at The Royal and Ancient Golf Club of St Andrews, David reflects on a career that has seen him become one of the game's leading lights.
Along the way, we also hear about his passion for music (yes, the saxophone makes an appearance), lockdown tunes, and his involvement in initiatives like the Caddie School for Soldiers.
A brilliant listen.
