We recently got the chance to sit down with one of golf's true legends. Doug Sanders finished runner up in the Open (twice), The US Open and the PGA, and was 4th in the Masters. But he's about a lot more than that, as The Rat Pack would testify...
The partners behind the internationally renowned Castle Stuart Golf Links have held talks with several new investors, as they want to take the destination to the next level. Here's what they are planning to do.
The Football Association is commissioning a survey to see whether there is demand for a nine-hole golf course to be built at England’s training base, St George’s Park. Do they really need a survey??
We want to hit the ball further in 2016. We're not sure we're ready to start working out though, so we thought we'd see which driver might help us hit longer drives this year. There are limitations in place on driver design by the R&A and USGA, but the manufactuers won't stop striving to produce drivers that hit the ball consistantly further.
It is sometimes all too easy to assume that life on the LPGA is one of victories on the course. For Morgan Pressel there was another victory of a different kind today as for her foundation raised $1 Million Dollars towards the fight against Breast Cancer.

Rickie Fowler has been making an impact this week with his new high-top spikes and training pants outfit, but he is acutely conscious that 2016 is going to be every bit as an important year as 2015, which was his break-through year.

GolfPunk travelled to Antwerp to meet Thomas Pieters in his home town. And we talked about everything from Ryder Cup heroics to the burning questions of the day, such as 'Can animals commit suicide?'....
On 21st September, 2018, Oliver Fisher did something that no golfer, in over 690,000 rounds on the European Tour had ever managed to do. He shot a 59 at The Portugal Masters. We made him a nice cap to celebrate...
