Great escape
It was not the British Open nor the US Masters. Unlike the manicured fairways of the Royal and Ancient at St Andrews or Augusta National, there was not a blade of grass on the course. To the players, however, this was serious. It was more than sport. It was a small freedom; a form of escape from their World War II prisoner-of-war camp in Germany.
