Welcome to another edition of our newsletter. This week, we take a look at two American wins on Tour with a rules conundrum for Rickie, and we ask you to cast a vote in our monthly poll. Enjoy the read! |
Captain / Pro 2019 Not a lot to report this week from the course as we were hit by a snow fall which shut us down for the weekend which made for some fabulous views of the course. With Grit (literally) and determination we cleared the road in and out so people could use the facilities. Which leads me to my next topic... Our first Captain / Pro match of the year. |
|
Martin & I played our first Captain / Pro Match, of course in the studio we played host to Stuart Dozey and Ash Green. The pair took to the conditions well, warm, dry and coffees in takeaway cups, they took the first hole to go 1 up at the home of golf and Martin and I were up against it early on!
We then struck back on the 5th then winning 6 & 7 to go 1 up with 2 holes left to play and then winning the 8th made us victorious, 2&1 played over 9 holes. A enjoyable morning to say the least and great banter, we look forward to the re-match on the course.

NEW In from PING - The G410 The leading brands have been busy launching new clubs these last few weeks with Callaway and TaylorMade stealing the headlines. However now it's PING who have just released the G410 range of drivers, fairways, hybrids and irons. We have the full range of demo irons available for fitting and for you to try. The new G410 irons are the perfect iron for any golfer looking to hit more greens thanks to a drastic reallocation of weight, including the removal of the Custom Tuning Port in the cavity and tungsten weights being added in the hosel and toe. A top rail undercut has been combined with a cascading sole and updated COR-Eye technology to create a more flexible, free-moving face for increased deflection and ball speed. The hinging effect also helps increase launch for better stopping power.

Age is just a number!
There isn’t much to report this week because of the snow but we do have something special! Barbara Hughes had 25 points in this week’s mid-week ladies competition, at the age of 92 I think we can all hope we are still playing golf like Barbara is! |
Double delight for American duo… There were victories for two of Team USA’s Ryder Cup stalwarts over the weekend, with Rickie Fowler overcoming a major blip on Sunday afternoon to hold-on to his overnight lead and claim the atmospheric Waste Management Phoenix Open, whilst big-hitting Dustin Johnson secured his first regular European Tour title at the inaugural Saudi Arabia International tournament. Fowler’s final round wasn’t without incident, with one of the strangest dropping procedures taking place on the 11th hole leading to a triple bogey seven. Rickie’s chip shot on the 11th lacked spin and skidded through the damp green into the water just missing a bunker. After taking his penalty drop, Rickie walked to the green to view his options, and during this time his ball rolled back into the water. This led to some confusion between Rickie and his playing partners, but a rules official deemed the ball to be in play so another penalty drop was needed! Luckily he made the resulting putt to escape with a seven and go onto to win with impressive birdies on the closing stretch. Click here if you have a rules question for me. |
New shoes? Walk this way... |
Golf is first and foremost a walking sport, with many of us strolling more than five miles in a pair of shoes every single round. You might read that fact and instantly recall getting off the 18th green wanting nothing more than a sit-down, feet aching, after realising your shoes aren’t as comfortable as they ought to be. Well, if that is the case, it might well be time for a change... |
