Home hopes – who are you backing?

The wet conditions faced at the Evian Championship last week could well be the perfect preparation for the world's best as they head to Woburn for the Women's British Open, which begins on Thursday.

Last year saw home-grown hero Georgia Hall fire a sublime final round five-under-par to overhaul Thailand’s Pornanong Phatlum and claim her first Major championship. But will there be a repeat this year to make it back-to-back British women on the top step in their home Major?

Hall will no doubt be one of the favourites and along with the likes of Charley Hull, Bronte Law and Meghan Maclaren (to name but a few) who are all flying the flag for the British Isles, there is plenty of reason to get excited ahead of the fifth and final women’s Major of the year.

Get more iron in your diet

If you're looking for a new set of irons there is so much choice out there that it can become a little bit of a mine field. So, why not grab a coffee, take five and watch our latest video on why Lynx’s Black Cat irons (2019) could well be the perfect addition to your bag?

Nick Dougherty talks us through the Black Cat range

“It's got that lovely feel that you'd expect from a blade club but with the distance of a VT iron”

Never has a truer word been spoken and one of the reasons we love this Black Cat iron is that it suits all different types of golfers, as long as you're correctly fitted before hand.

“What's the likelihood that you're going to buy something off the rack that's going to be perfect for you? Slim to none, I'd say”

So, now you've seen them, why not give them a go? Our expertise will help you through the fitting process to make sure the investment you're making in your game actually results in better scores.

A ball for every occasion

Let’s be honest: we're greedy when it comes to our golf ball, and rightly so. We don’t want to have to choose between distance or feel; instead, we want a ball that offers us the lot.

Picture the scenario

You’re out playing a round with your friends and you've just used your ball to hit a delicate flop shot over a bunker to a few feet and knocked it in for par - top job! Following a short walk to the next tee, you’re then stood on a par-5 needing to smash your Sunday best as far down the fairway as possible.

This scenario requires a ball that is versatile enough to offer you spin and feel around the greens, whilst providing explosive distance and a high launch from the tee.

Consider TP5/x from TaylorMade

Fortunately, the clever folks at TaylorMade know a thing or two about golf balls, which is why their TP5 and TP5x balls are used by some of the world's best golfers, such as McIlroy, Fowler and DJ.

Here's what you can expect from both:

TP5 - lower launch, more workable and a softer feel
TP5x - piercing ball flight and best wind performance

These are balls that you need to try, so come and speak to a member of the team for more information.

I hope you have enjoyed this week's update.
We hope to see you soon
