“Tom had a day off so he just had to go to St Andrews,” a source told the Daily Record. “It is the home of golf and only about 250 miles from where he’s filming. It took no time in a helicopter.”
Filming of his latest movie is taking place in Yorkshire, where Cruise is based. Most locals in the area were thrilled to have a Hollywood star in the area – but villagers in nearby Middleton Tyas weren’t best please with the noise pollution.
