Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy just joined one of golf’s most exclusive clubs

Now the illustrious duo with 19 majors between them are set to become official members of the “Home of Golf.”

On Wednesday, the R&A said that Woods and McIlroy had accepted invitations to become honorary members

of the Royal and Ancient Golf Club of St. Andrews, one of the oldest golf clubs in the world

whose clubhouse looms behind the 18th green of the Old Course.

Veteran Scottish pro Paul Lawrie, who won the 1999 Open at Carnoustie, was also named an honorary member.

Interestingly, although the club is located alongside the Old Course, it does not own or operate the courses in St. Andrews
