Some of the most memorable golfing moments can’t be relived again but can be captured through pictures and videos. Professional photographers try to capture the perfect moment for their admirers, but only a few can have a telling effect.

With the prestigious Masters Tournament coming up this April, Yarrow decided to place two of the greatest golfers of all time in front of his camera. “As this year’s US Masters looms closer, it was an honor to work with legendary golfers Jack Nicklaus and Gary Player last weekend in Florida,” he wrote in the caption.

Furthermore, Yarrow spoke about how he wanted the two legends in one frame, with an evening cocktail at a dimly lit bar set up as the perfect spot. The two surreal winners faced off in a game of cards, which was described in Yarrow’s caption.

“It is no accident that his [Nicklaus’] cards are a Jack and an eight. Gary is not showing his hand but we all know that he can’t beat that. He was a nine in total,” the caption claimed.

Photographer’s impressive picture raises over $100,000

Yarrow further claimed that his splendid picture made the rounds at the Gary and Vivienne Player Foundation event in Jupiter, Florida last night. Impressively, he claimed that the picture raised over $100,000 for the charity. The money will be used for Amanda Player’s efforts to help the homeless in her home city of Philadelphia.

The significance of a photograph was further illustrated by the above-mentioned picture. While forming part of legacies, they tend to become a source of help for the needy during dire times. Yarrow specializes in such photographs, having raised £10 million for charity since 2017 with his work.
