• Bubba Watson

    Bubba Watson is known for doing things differently, like having a pink shaft in his driver, firing golf balls through water melons and being one quarter of the golf boy band “The Golf Boys.”

  • Golf Insurance Matters

    The latest article in our how to series turns the spotlight on some of the unexpected things that can happen at the driving range – from ricochets to self-inflicted injuries – and why it pays to be insured. With winter closing in and less daylight hours in which to hit the course the best place to keep swinging is at the driving range. The driving range is a great hangout for golfers of all skill levels and abilities. Given that your local driving range could be filled with hackers and heroes it’s not impossible that an innocent trip to whack some balls could end in disaster, injury or a sizeable legal bill.

  • La Reservae Golf Club, Costa Del Sol

    A new course designed by Cabell B. Robinson, La Reserva Club De Golf had only recently opened but I would never have guessed. On arrival it was obvious the course was in perfect condition. The opening hole at La Reserva is a straight par four with well designed bunkers and an attractive green – a good, if understated opener, but on the 2nd tee, however, the front nine opens up before you and you get an idea of the challenge that lies ahead. Set out in a small valley with wonderful changes in elevation, attractive contours and great scenery, the next eight holes weave back in forth in fantastic fashion.

  • Lie of the Land

    A caddie at The Old Course at St Andrews, Turnberry or Troon would tell you that it takes time to get to know the subtleties and nuances of links land and learn the bounce of the ball. Often slopes and natural features can funnel the ball towards the hole, squeeze extra yards from a drive or prevent a ball from going in a hazard.

  • Thorpenes Golf Club

    TA Hotel Collection, owners of Thorpeness Hotel and Golf Club in Suffolk, are seeking to attract more golf tourists to the county with the launch of a new trail combining real ale tours and classic seaside golf courses.

Feng climbs to No. 4, Park remains No. 1 in rankings


NAPLES, Fla. – Shanshan Feng climbed three spots to No. 4 Monday in the release of the newest Rolex Women’s World Rankings.

Feng has been on a hot late-season run with two victories in her last four LPGA starts. She won the Reignwood Classic in her native China on Oct. 6, finished second in her next start at the Sime Darby Malaysia, tied for eighth at the Mizuno Classic and won the season-ending CME Group Titleholders on Sunday.

Inbee Park extended her reign at No. 1 to 33 weeks.

Lexi Thompson moved up one spot to No. 9, her highest position in the world rankings.

With her second-place finish at CME, Gerina Piller made the biggest move of any player among the top 400 in the world, vaulting 17 spots to No. 36, making her the seventh highest ranked American behind Stacy Lewis (No. 3), Thompson (No. 9), Cristie Kerr (No. 12), Paula Creamer (No. 13), Angela Stanford (No. 16) and Lizette Salas (No. 20).
