Tour news

Woods' year just keeps on getting better...

Tiger Woods led his U.S. team to a dominant display on Sunday in the singles to overhaul the Internationals and make it eight straight Presidents Cup victories.

Trailing 10-8 at the start of the final days play, Woods put himself up first and came away with a 3&2 win over Abraham Ancer - which proved to be the catalyst for an American rise.

Eight of the twelve points available on Sunday were dispatched by the U.S. to take victory 16 -14 in Melbourne despite the Internationals looking dangerous all throughout the competition.

Patrick Reed also earned a little redemption by defeating C.T Pan 4&2. This was despite his caddie getting banned from the tournament for pushing a fan who was heckling Reed earlier in the competition.

Wood’s win over Ancer was also a record-breaker as it was Tiger's 27th point he has achieved in the Presidents Cup, one more than Phil Mickelson’s previous record of 26.

2019 has been some year for Tiger!

Don't let rain ruin your day

How old is your waterproof jacket? A recent survey indicated that 60% of golfers are wearing one that is over two years old and if you’re one of them – or if you’re struggling to remember when you bought yours – it might be time to considering upgrading this winter.

A lot of today’s jackets come with a two or three-year waterproof warranty, which means your jacket’s best days might be behind you.

If so, we have some fantastic options available in the pro shop at a range of competitive prices to suit all budgets.

So, take a quick look at your current rain jacket and if you notice it could do with an upgrade, pop in-store and we'll help you find something that'll keep you dry, comfortable and swinging freely this winter.

It's so important...

How many greens do you hit in regulation during a round? It’s probably fair to say it’s fewer than you would like, which means your wedge game needs to be sharp to save you shots. Yes, technique plays a huge part but so do the wedges that you use.

What state are yours in?

If your wedges are several years old, there's a good chance the grooves would have worn away to a point where the spin they produce is massively reduced.

Brands have worked tirelessly to ensure their grooves last longer than ever, but weekly golf will inevitably result in them wearing away slowly over time.

Take these for a spin

If yours have reached a point of no return, why not try out PING's stunning Glide 3.0 wedge to see if you enjoy a better feel, more control, and increased spin?

Come and speak to a member of the team in-store if you're interested, or watch our review to find out more.
