Clubmakers Mungo Park Alnmouth/Musselburgh Mungo Park was the younger brother of Willie Park senior and born in Musselburgh in 1835. His early career was as a seaman but he returned to terra firma and, with only a few months' practice, won the 1874 Open Championship on his home course of Musselburgh. He went to the North of England as a professional at Alnmouth (where he laid out the course), Tyneside and West Cumberland. He is really Mungo Park snr, though never so designated in the records, as his nephew, of the same name, born in 1877, was the one to make more of a splash in the clubmaking world.
