Abstract/Contents:Profiles St Andrews Links, including trivia about the course. States that "St Andrews Links is the largest public golf venue in the world"; "over 200,000 rounds are played in total on the six courses - 60% local; 40% visitor"; "it employs around 250 people in the high season"; and "the Trust is a charitable organization so all surpluses are reinvested into the Links." Discusses the Links Trust, explaining that "the Links Trust is a self-financing charitable trust with two accountable bodies - the Trustees and the Links Management Committee (LMC). Each group is made up of eight volunteers nominated by Fife Council and the R&A [Royal & Ancient]." Explains that "the LMC is responsible to the Trustees for running the golf courses and facilities."
