Hello golfers,
Last weekend saw the culmination of the European Tour Season with the DP World Tour Championship in Dubai. Open Champion Henrik Stenson secured the top spot in the Order of Merit after finishing 9th in the final event of the year, claiming a $1.25million bonus in the process. Englishman Matthew Fitzpatrick won the tournament itself, pipping fellow countryman Tyrell Hatton after he birdied the final hole of the tournament.
Now that we are experiencing more prolonged spells of cold weather, we have the perfect solution to keep you warm. Back by popular demand, these FootJoy Chillout tops are prefect for layering up and keeping out the winter chill. There are two new styles available (pictured) along with the classic navy colour which are priced at only £55 each.
For those of you wishing to purchase (or receive) a club logo'd sweater from Glenbrae over the festive period, please note that the deadline for orders to guarantee delivery in time for Christmas is Friday, 9 December. Glenbrae have a fantastic range of lambswool, merino and lined sweaters in up to 27 different colours. To view their range of products please click here.
We held a successful trial of our new skills evenings last week. We will now host an open evening on Wednesday, 30 November in the Swing Studio. To book your spot please either reply to this email or speak to one of the pro shop team.
Kind Regards,
Paul Schunter
Director of Golf & Operations
