If you want to get the most of watching golf at home, these simple ideas should give you the inspiration to recreate the atmosphere of being at a tournament without leaving your government-sanctioned, social bubble.
Among many other things, the king of golf, Arnold Palmer is known for his signature drink. It’s simple, sweet and, although it’s sometimes referred to as a cocktail, it contains 0% alcohol. The recipe is simple but brilliant. Just pour 80ml of iced tea and 80ml lemonade and add a lemon wedge garnish to round it off and off you go.
Anyone looking for something stronger, will have to opt for the John Daly. A nod to its namesake’s love of a drink or two, the John Daly adds a shot of vodka to the Arnold Palmer.
If you're understandably ready to eat by this point, then wait no more. I've found this recipe for the legendary Augusta pimento cheese sandwich. It’s easily the biggest highlight of the Masters that has absolutely nothing to do with golf. The recipe claims to be better than the real thing but you can find out for yourself

Tiger Woods has been known to like some beef jerky to help keep him going while he’s out on the course. Making it yourself is maybe too much hassle but you can order it in the UK from Billy Franks, who make a variety of high-quality jerky from British meat. Is this the secret to Tiger’s success? Who knows... Why don’t you find out?
And finally, while this may not be something you can eat on the course, anyone who has played or been to an event in St Andrews or on any links course in the UK will undoubtedly associate a good plate of fresh fish and chips from a real chippie (or even from the clubhouse) with the end of a day spent out on the course. Give this recipe a try if you’re brave enough to try making it yourself at home...
