Hello golfers,

Welcome to another edition of your weekly newsletter. In this week's mail we look at the return of a legend, wish one of our own good luck in an upcoming event and take a look back at the events over the past week. Enjoy the read.

He's back...

Good afternoon golfers, I hope you are all well! Today is the day Tiger Woods returns to competitive golf! Some of the videos, comments and reports have been encouraging and fingers crossed we have a Tiger who is injury free, competitive and is entertaining. Tiger has done so much for golf and it would great to have him competing and teeing it up regularly.

Being a huge Tiger fan, I am being very optimistic and think he will shoot under 70 in round 1, how do you think he will get on?

Let us know

Robin's heading to Joburg

Congratulations to Milton's Robin Williams who has been invited to his second European Tour event next week, the Joburg Open at Randpark Golf Club in South Africa, 7-10 December. You can watch full live coverage of the tournament on Sky TV where Robin will be teeing it up alongside the likes of Louis Oosthuizen and George Coetzee.

Play well Robin!

Captains Drive-In

It was our Captains Drive-In on Saturday and even the cold weather didn’t put people coming along to see the new captains tee off. After arriving in style in a limo and sipping champagne, the captains made their way to the first tee to celebrate the start of their captaincy by driving off.

A huge congratulations to Graham, Roz, Steve and Sam for hitting great tee shots (it was still on the fairway Graham, just!) in front of a big crowd. Have a great year guys and enjoy all of the golf!

Pro Roll Up

After last weeks successful first Pro Shop Roll Up we are pleased to say we have another one booked for Thursday 14th December. The format is 18 holes individual stableford, followed by food and drink afterwards in the Clubhouse.

This is a great chance to make sure you're playing some golf over the winter and gives you an opportunity to have a game with somebody you haven't plated with before. To book your space, there is a £10 entry and this includes your food and a drink afterwards.

10 yards for £10

We hosted a new event on Wednesday where we set the challenge of adding 10 yards to your drives or we would give you your money back! We added 202 yards in total to peoples drives, out of 10 golfers we had to give 2 golfers their money back!

One of the golfers refunded still increased by 9 yards (so close!) and one golfer was having a bad day at the office and we need to work on the swing and not his distance!

Whilst a 30 minute lesson isn't the answer to long term improvement, it highlights how improvements can be made to everyones game. The real challenge for everyone who attended is to work hard on the changes, and have regular coaching to ensure the improvements last!
