The Golf Team

Hello Golfers,

Welcome to another edition of our newsletter.

The European Tour will be hoping to match the excitement of the PGA Tour’s finale, with the Race to Dubai close to reaching its season-ending climax. Fresh from their exploits in the Ryder Cup, the ‘Moliwood’ pairing of Francesco Molinari and Tommy Fleetwood are busy occupying the top two spots, with Molinari holding a 1.4 million point lead over Fleetwood, who triumphed in the Race to Dubai last year. All 12 members of Europe’s Ryder Cup team are set to take part in the DP World Tour Championship, which will determine who is crowned the winner of the European Tour.

Enjoy the read.

Totally bunkers!

The proposed changes to the Rules of Golf are less than three months away so we thought we'd look at one introduction which will put your mind at ease when you find yourself in a tricky situation within a bunker...

You may not be aware but under the current ruling, you cannot take relief outside the bunker once you've already made an attempt to play the ball from inside. However, under the proposed changes (19.3b), and for two penalty strokes, you will have the additional option of taking relief outside the bunker by dropping a ball back on the line from the hole through where your ball was at rest in the bunker. Phew.

Go the distance

We've all been there - around 75 yards out and faced with a tricky little pitch shot towards a tight pin; danger over the back and a tier just before the flag that will take anything short down to the front edge.

The first stage in overcoming potential card wreckers like this is knowing how far you hit a full shot with each of your wedges. The second is having three different distances that you can comfortably hit with each, adding to your options when faced with this scenario.

Cleveland CBX

One wedge which will offer you the versatility required for absolute precision in distance control is Cleveland’s CBX. The cavity back design gives you the forgiveness you need when faced with a difficult pitch shot, as well as short game versatility. The centre of gravity is positioned behind the face, which aids the feel and also gives you supreme distance control, meaning you’ll be confident of avoiding danger both in front and behind the green.
