Matchplay Fomat 

Each Matchplay Tie will be played in a stroke play format. So if 1 player scores 17 points and the other has 18 points the player with 18 is the winner. This allows matches to be played without the opponents having to play together. The reason for this is that there are a mixture of times over the weekend when people play, so without causing an inconvenience I felt this was the best way to format the competition. However both players need to play on the same day. Matches can be played Saturday or Sunday. If you need any more info please feel free to contact me. 

The aim is to have this played by the end of February so please organise your matches as quickly as possible.

Here at Glenrothes Pro Shop we will have demo products for you to try, we also have a full line up of Custom Fitting tools to make sure we get the correct club to suit you. Here are a few pics of the new products!!

Volunteers Required!

Some of you may have seen my post earlier in the week letting you all know that the Callaway Rogue Range has arrived in the Pro Shop.

Rather than me telling you how good the product is I would like to invite you to pop along to the Pro Shop to test the Products for yourselves! I am looking for up to 4 volunteers to test the new metal wood and iron range from Callaway. The first 4 customers who get back to me will feature in my newsletter over the next few weeks!

Tour update

I thought the golf on display over the weekend from both Tours was outstanding. The way that Li Haotong held off Rory over the closing holes in Dubai was incredible. Over in the US it was great to see Tiger back in action and looking healthy, although his driving was diabolical the rest of his game looked pretty good for a man who hasn’t played a lot of competition golf over the past few years.

The only low point for me was the length of time taken to complete the rounds particularly in the US. J B Holmes on the final hole was a disgrace, taking over 4 minutes to play his shot. God only knows how he would get on playing in the Club medal on a Saturday at Glenrothes carrying on like that!!
