As part of the media team at The Open for a number of years, Tara was such a joy to work with and a huge support to me when I started at The R&A. So warm and a lot of fun to be around, we all feel completely heartbroken with this sad and shocking news.

There are so many good times to remember and just thinking about some of those brings a smile to my face.

I am so grateful to have these happy memories that I will always cherish.  The world has lost a beautiful, talented, funny and affectionate girl, rest in peace Tara, you are very loved and will be massively missed by all. Shine bright as always.

A truly special person. Thank you.
