Algarvian charity Pro-Am

Last week I was fortunate to be playing in Portugal on four magnificent courses in the company of Phil Smith, Mark Davies and Andy Bytheway. Although we didn’t figure in the Prizes we were the most handsome team and had a great time!

The Charity Pro-Am played over 72 holes which raised 5000 euros for a Downs Syndrome Charity was a great success with 62 teams taking part.

After a couple of average rounds, I dragged my team to the practice ground on our free day and told them they couldn’t leave until their hands were bleeding! I think they enjoyed it?

We did get a little better in the last round but not quite enough to trouble the leaders.
A massive thank you as always to my team, who are all great friends as well as golfing buddies.

Tour news

Westwood comes out on top

46-year-old Lee Westwood finished two shots ahead on 19 under par to secure his first win of the new decade. Remarkably, it also means that he has won a tournament in each of the last four decades.

Westwood gained an impressive four and a half strokes on the field with his driving and becomes the oldest winner of a Rolex Series event. His five-under-par round of 67 kept the chasing pack of Victor Perez, Tommy Fleetwood and Matt Fitzpatrick at bay.

This impressive victory for Westwood is his 25th on the European Tour in 554 appearances and will bump him up to the top of the Race to Dubai standings.

 
 
 
First look...

January is always an exciting time in the golf industry with new products being launched left, right and centre. For us, there's one product that has us more excited than any other this year and it's Callaway's aptly-named Mavrik driver.

Callaway Mavrik
New for 2020

We're sure you'll agree it looks phenomenal and with three models available - Mavrik, Mavrik Sub-Zero and Mavrik Max - it's vital that you come down to see us in order to find the best option for your game.

Layer up

Last week we talked about one of our favourite topics: rain! Whilst waterproof protection is key for staying dry when caught in a downpour, combining layers of clothing underneath is vital if you want to enjoy the warmth without being so restricted that you can’t complete your backswing.

Layering

What do we mean by layering?

Lots of golfers are still in the habit of putting on as many layers as they possibly can in the winter to combat the cold – a vest, turtleneck, polo, sweater and jacket – but today’s golf clothing could easily cut that down by half.

Glenmuir clothing

What do we suggest?

Glenmuir has always been a golf-specific brand that produces outstanding quality garments that will last a long time. We really like the Killin pullover, which is primed to combat the cold, wind and any showers - saving you at least a couple of layers!
