The Local Knowlege

So what kind of amateur field plays in the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship, the European Tour's equivalent of the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am? A remarkably gilded one. Among American celebrities are George Lopez, Kyle MacLachlan, Marcus Allen, Maury Povich, John O'Hurley, Huey Lewis, Don Felder and Greg Kinnear. British actor Hugh Grant is also playing. Then there is Beltrán Gomez-Acebo, nephew of King Juan Carlos of Spain, former USGA executive committee member Eric Gleacher, former skiing great Franz Klammer, Sir Michael Bonallack, former secretary of the Royal and Ancient, Peter Dawson, chief executive of the Royal and Ancient Golf Club, and a host of well-heeled businessmen from around the world.
