Three off the Tee - 20th November '24 Newsletter

Hello there

It might be Wednesday already but still smiling at the weekend win for Rory claiming a third DP World Tour Championship title and sixth Race to Dubai victory.  It is the third year in succession that McIlroy has topped the tour's season rankings and his sixth title overall - matching Seve Ballesteros' record. "I've been through a lot this year, professionally, personally and it feels like the fitting end to 2024," said McIlroy. 

Not mentioning the rugby, though I just did 🙂

Par for the Course

Not much else to say really. The course is stunning though and the deer have been happy. 

 
         

The Greenkeeping team have been putting up a much needed new fence down the 2nd hole.  This won't stop your wayward golf balls, so please keep those left.

Pro Shop

Winter golf demands extra preparation - additional layers, accessories, and anything else to combat the weather. This highlights the importance of a great golf bag, offering ample storage and protection against the elements. The Pro Shop have a wide range of golf bags that will work for you. 

 
 

 

 
 
 

Members Question

You are invited to send any questions in that you would like one of the Management Committee members to answer. Often a committee member is approached on the putting green with a question that might not relate to their area of knowledge. This is a way for you to ask those questions.
