From the Wikipedia article
The New Golf Club is an exclusive golf club in St Andrews, Fife, Scotland. It is one of the three senior men's clubs in St Andrews, along with the Royal and Ancient Golf Club of St Andrews and the St Andrews Golf Club. The club was founded in 1902. The club does not own a golf course of its own, and consequently members play on the seven public links courses at the St Andrews Links including the Old Course.

Background
History
In 1821 the Cheape family had bought the St Andrews Links including the Old Course. The same men, who fought for the new law were the same men who founded The New Golf Club. During this time, the people of the town had no clubhouse, even though there were at least nine golf clubs in St Andrews. Eight local businessmen established the Club in 1902, with Old Tom Morris being a supporter, having visited the Club regularly. It was in the New Golf clubhouse that he had the accident which would lead to his eventual death.
Description
The St Andrews New Golf Club tartan was produced for the centenary (1902-2002) of the New Club at St Andrews and is restricted to Members of the club. It comes in purple, earth and green.
