And old Tom Morris revered the man so much that he named his second son after him : John Ogilvie Fairlie Morris or JOF to his family.
A very interesting character and should be credited more with his foresight in creating The Open Championship. He was also the winning Knight, The Knight of the Golden Lion, in the Eglington Tournament which was created and hosted by his good friend The 13th Earl of Eglington in 1839. An excellent golfer in his own right, competing in The Open on several occasions, the very first publishedgolfers year book published in 1866 was dedicated to him, where it was noted that he was 'deservedly dedicated by the earl of dalhousie the Champion Amateur of Scotland as having held the prestwick, St Andrews, and North berwick medals during the same season. J.O. Fairlie lies in his final resting place in the churchyard of Symington Church, Ayrshire, a short distance from his family home at Coodham.
James O Fairlie doesn’t get enough credit for creating the oldest Major in golf. Seldom mentioned.
