Hello golfers,

Welcome to the latest edition of our weekly newsletter. In this week's email, we give you some advice on how to get a razor sharp short game, our 'Tips from the Tour' segment continues with a video from Ian Poulter, and we look back on a special achievement by a talented English golfer. Enjoy the read.

The First Man to Ever do This...

It was very much a case of ‘by how many’ for Tyrrell Hatton on Sunday afternoon as he headed into the final round of the Dunhill Links Championship with a five-shot cushion. The Englishman finished his round with a 24-under-par total to successfully defend the tournament he won a year earlier, the first golfer to ever achieve the feat.

With the Dunhill taking place across St Andrews, Kingsbarns and Carnoustie, it’s a great opportunity to see who copes best with the unique challenge that links golf presents. On Friday, Tommy Fleetwood took apart Carnoustie to shoot a course-record 63, meaning  he possessed course records at two of the three courses at that point in time. That was until Ross Fisher’s Sunday exploits at St Andrews, which saw him post a new record with an 11-under 61 after a three-putt par at the infamous 18th.

Fleetwood will certainly head into next year’s Open Championship at Carnoustie with positive thoughts, whilst links golf clearly brings out the best in Hatton’s game. Maybe we'll see an English name on the Claret Jug for the first time in over 25 years next July….

Is your Game up to Scratch?

Winter is an ideal time of the year to book lessons to tweak your game. So why not call the pro shop to book with either Jon, Dan or Nick, or even book as an ideal Christmas gift as vouchers are available.

And while the opportunity to play lessons, it’s this time of year our electric carts could benefit from a service. Here at West Byfleet we offer a full service, so pop into the shop and let us take care of them.

We also offer club cleaning and re-gripping all done in-house, plus don’t forget to check your studs for that extra grip required this winter.

Please note the shop winter opening hours are: 8am-5.30pm from Sunday, 29 October
