Prince Andrew cuts a solo figure as he plays golf in the Scottish Highlands... ... trends now

Prince Andrew was pictured today cutting a solo figure while playing golf in the Scottish Highlands as Prince William and the duke's daughter Beatrice attended a garden party at Buckingham Palace.

The Duke of York could be seen wearing a navy jumper with a grey baseball cap on the course at Castle Stuart near Inverness this morning.

Andrew was joined by three other players on the picturesque grounds of the course while four men, dressed in red with white bibs and red caps, caddied for the foursome.

The 64-year-old spent some time lining up a shot near a water feature on the course as the other members of the group watched on.

The royal, also wearing blue trousers and a maroon polo shirt beneath his jumper, could be seen grimacing slightly as he walked on after he played the stroke on the immaculately cut grass.

The duke's round came as the younger royals showed support for the King earlier today by hosting a garden party at Buckingham Palace in his absence.

Led by the Prince of Wales, making his first appearance at the palace this summer, the glamorous party also included his cousins Princess Beatrice, Princess Eugenie, Zara Tindall - accompanied by her husband, Mike - and Peter Philips.

The Duke and Duchess of Gloucester were also present.

The monarch often assigns responsibility for hosting one of the annual garden parties to family members, or allows them to organise one of their own for charities they are closely associated with.
