Pro V1 Draw

This week's winner of the Pro V1 draw was Murdo who won a dozen balls.

Lesson of the Week

This week we have worked on set-up/posture position with Don, this helped in producing a more consistent fuller back swing and creating more space in the downswing for an improved impact position. I have also worked with Andrew on improving his impact position to create a stronger more penetrating ball flight and eliminate the shot going left.

Golf’s a tough game

It’s been a fantastic year of golf on the European Tour and so it was only fitting that we were left guessing right until the final hole of the season as to who would be crowned Race to Dubai champion 2017.

For those of you who don’t know, the Race to Dubai is the European Tour’s order of merit title and is won by the golfer who has accumulated the most points over the year - a sure sign of consistency. The higher up the leaderboard you finish in a European Tour event – including the four Majors – the more Race to Dubai points you receive.

Heading into the final event last week, Tommy Fleetwood led the way with only Justin Rose and Sergio Garcia in with a chance of overtaking him. Come Sunday it was Rose, looking to secure his third victory in a row, who was in pole position until an uncharacteristically poor back nine saw the Englishman tumble back into the pack, paving the way for Fleetwood to claim his maiden Race to Dubai title.

To win any OoM title requires consistently good golf over a long period of time, something that we all strive for and something that a series of lessons with us can go a long way in helping you to achieve.
