THE chief of Topgolf has paid a visit to the company’s first Scottish venue.
CEO Artie Starrs was checking on the progress ahead of its opening later this year.
The new three-level venue in Rutherglen will create a completely new, modern golfing experience, including point-scoring games, bars and restaurants.
The American-based company is creating 300 new jobs for the local area and recruitment for management positions is underway.

“As the home of golf, Scotland is an important market for us.
