Opening Sides Match On Saturday the course was full as we opened the golfing season. In traditional style The Captains Team took on the Vice Captains Team. In our match, Captain Greg and I played against Steve Smith and the President. It’s safe to say Greg and I didn’t have our A game with us on Saturday, -2 under par round from me and Captain coming in here and there didn’t come close to keeping Mr Smith at bay. Stood on the 18th tee Steve had dropped just 5 shots off a handicap of 16! Every credit Steve, some super golf played and lovely to see. Despite the banter! |
Team winners: Captains Team – M Watson & K Birdsall 47 points. Well done guys, it’s always nice to see our pupils doing so well. Vice Captains Team – Nigel Davey & Ian Hardman 45 points. Well done guys! Hole In One – Nigel Taylor on the 12th. And not to mention, the Captains team secured the bragging rights with an overall victory on the day! |

If at first you don’t succeed… 12-months ago, American Kevin Kisner woke up on the Monday after the WGC Match Play Championship nursing the disappointment of a thumping 7&6 final round loss to Bubba Watson. However, this Monday, the mood in the Kisner camp was quite different after the 35-year-old overcame fellow American Matt Kuchar 3&2 to win his first WGC title and stake a major claim for a Ryder Cup berth ahead of next year's contest at Whistling Straits. Victories over Tony Finau, Keith Mitchell, Ian Poulter (in a playoff), Haotong Li, Louis Oosthuizen and Francesco Molinari proved Kisner has the ability to go toe-to-toe with the world's elite - maybe he should have been at Le Golf National last year? The wonders of hindsight. Quiz time: In the 21-year history of the WGC Match Play Championship, two Northern Irishmen have won the title. Who are they? A world-first at the Jordan Mixed Open This week sees the start of a revolutionary new tournament, where 40 players from each of the Ladies European Tour, Challenge Tour and StaySure Tour (over 50s) will compete against each other for one trophy and the same prize fund. The likes of Carly Booth, Jarmo Sandelin and Phillip Price will tee it up over three rounds in a tournament that is sure to snatch the headlines. Keep an eye on next week's newsletter for our report. |
Boa constrict your footwear |
There's been two major trends in the golf footwear market in recent years: the first is the surge in spikeless shoes, and the other is Boa. So, what actually is the Boa Fit System and is it anything to do with snakes? |
| FootJoy UltraFIT Boa golf shoe
|
|
No, it's nothing to do with snakes. Phew. Rather, the Boa Fit System has revolutionized footwear for the better and we absolutely love it. Instead of using traditional laces, Boa utilises a steel wire (virtually unbreakable) that is effortlessly tightened via an easy-to-use dial strategically placed on the shoe (seen above). To loosen, simply pull out the dial and open up at the tongue. |
With FootJoy's UltraFIT Boa, which is available in-store now, you will be guaranteed a comfortable fit every time safe in the knowledge that your laces will not come undone or get tangled throughout your round. If you haven’t already experienced Boa, then we implore you to come down to the store and try on this fantastic option today - no obligation. |
