Tour news

Guess who’s back?

Rewind to May 2018 when Francesco Molinari had just lifted the BMW PGA Championship; he was only two months away from his first Major victory (The Open, of course) and without doubt the golden boy of European golf.

At that very same time, Englishman Danny Willett was going through a dramatic loss of form that saw his World Ranking drop from ninth following his Green Jacket in 2016 to 462nd just after Molinari was finishing up his champagne on Wentworth’s eighteenth.

After going through a raft of changes to find a way back to golf's elite, two huge wins have followed in the last eleven months with the second of those on Sunday at the BMW PGA Championship. A final-round 67 enabled Willett to pull away from Jon Rahm (who he shared the overnight lead with) by closing out with birdie-birdie to win by three and make it seven Tour titles in the 31-year-old’s career.

Welcome back, Danny.

Quiz of the week

Following Willett’s success on home soil, can you name the six other British players who have won at Wentworth since the tournament changed its name to the BMW Championship in 2005?

Answers – Chris Wood 2016, Rory McIlroy 2014, Luke Donald (2012 and 2011), Simon Khan 2010, Paul Casey 2009 & David Howell 2006.

Glide into action

Without further ado, let us introduce PING’s scintillating third generation Glide wedge and look at why it's such a good option to be putting in the scoring part of your bag.

PING Glide 3.0 wedges

PING told us that these wedges spin more than previous models, are more forgiving and feel incredibly soft off the face, and we have to agree with them on all three fronts.

They look stunning, they perform superbly and there are plenty of options available. All that's left to do now is to come and try them out yourself the next time you're down the club.

Winter is coming

Have you ever noticed how much harder you need to hit your putts in the winter compared to summer? As surfaces begin to slow due to longer grass and wetter greens, the need for a little extra effort on your putting stroke becomes clear.

Should you change your putter?

As putts need to be hit harder to get the ball going the same distance as they do in the summer months, using a heavier putter certainly won’t do you any harm.

The thought here is that a heavier putter will do more of the work for you, allowing for a smooth and more controlled putting stroke.

Whilst still being relatively lightweight compared to some putters, Scotty Cameron's Phantom X 12 putter is certainly an option we'd recommend you trying thanks to its optimised weight distribution.

Come and see us in the pro shop and we'd be happy to help you find the perfect putter this autumn.

Spotlight: Boa Fit System

It's not always easy to keep up with the latest trends in fashion or to understand the newest technology that comes to market.

One such thing that we would definitely recommend you trying is the Boa Fit System, which is a replacement for more traditional laces on golf shoes.

We have a brilliant video that explains it in detail if you click the link below but, in short, it allows you to find the perfect fit at just a few turns of the dial - it really is effortless. Come in the shop and try a pair of Boa shoes on to see for yourself.
