• 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.

    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.

Major-winning trio set for Hawaii

Zach Johnson, Adam Scott and Webb Simpson have all confirmed their participation in the upcoming Hyundai Tournament of Champions.

Johnson, the 2007 Masters champion, recently won the BMW Championship and last week beat Tiger Woods in a play-off at the Northwestern Mutual World Challenge.

Scott made history this year when he became the first Australian to win the Masters, pipping Angel Cabrera in dramatic fashion on the second play-off hole.

He went on to win the Barclays in the States before picking up consecutive tournament victories in his native Australia.

Simpson, famous for winning the 2011 US Open, recently secured his fourth PGA Tour career victory at the Shriners Hospitals for Children Open.

As a group, Johnson, Scott and Simpson own 24 PGA Tour titles. All three finished the 2013 season ranked in the top 30 on the FedEx Cup points list, with Johnson and Scott finishing fourth and fifth respectively.

The Hyundai Tournament of Champions returns to The Plantation Course at Kapalua from January 2 to 6.
