The Old Tom Morris statue at St. Andrews was vandalized for the second time in 4 months

For the second time since it was unveiled, the Old Tom Morris statue has been vandalized.

The statue, which is on Bow Butts, the grassy bank behind the R&A Golf Club's clubhouse at St. Andrews in Scotland, was crafted by sculptor David Annand. It was damaged in November when vandals snapped off the clubhead, but it was repaired shortly after.

Once again, the clubhead has been snapped off.

Roger McStravick, a historian at St. Andrews, there was shattered glass from bottles around the base of the statue.

Old Tom Morris was the Keeper of the Greens and club professional at St. Andrews during his lifetime.
