As the GolfPunk Brigadier I am duty bound to read The Daily Telegraph at my club over my porridge and kippers every morning, and today I came across a letter to the Editor which I thought should be shared. Mr Michael Cooper of Addington, Kent, you are spot on. We've included a nice picture of young Mr. Spieth, as that's what The Daily Telegraph did as well.
You can’t help but get a special feeling when The Masters approaches. Turning on the television on a drizzly April evening to see the perfectly manicured fairways and tall Georgia Pines of Augusta National is a truly special feeling. With this GolfPunk exclusive unbelievable offer, you can go to Augusta and get a brand new set of custom fit Callaway irons thrown in!!!
No one has been going really low today. The rain has made the rough that much more penal, and focused everyone’s attention on hitting fairways. There’s zero reward in being off-line, and that’s kept it conservative out there today. It’s frankly been a very quiet day indeed. Zzzzzzz.
Titleist have switched things up with the launch of the 816 H1 and H2 hybrids. Realising that hybrids need to be gapped distance wise with a set of irons, they've switched the release schedule to come out the same time as the irons rather than with the driver and irons.
In the middle of deepest darkest Connecticut – The Forest Moon of Endor, at the Foxwoods Resort – (Stop making me look up Star Wars references, grandad! – Ed), we’ve been privy to TaylorMade’s exclusive new driver launch. The M1 is coming, and we’ve got the scoop.
Rickie Fowler bagged his third PGA Tour victory with a one shot win over Henrik Stenson. Plus Jordan Spieth back to World No1!
There were a number of great rounds out there today. Henrik Stenson was lurking ominously with an opening two rounds of 67 and 68, and today he moved up another gear, shooting a 65. And as for Rickie? Well, read on.
David Feherty’s sudden departure from CBS has come as a bit of a surprise to us all down at GolfPunk Towers. We’re not happy about it, so we wanted to understand what was going on, and what could be next for him. Here’s what we found.
This week’s action moves to the Deutsche Bank at the TPC Boston. The course was originally designed by Arnold Palmer and built in 2003, but was then redesigned by Gil Hanse and Brad Faxon, the PGA Tour Player, in 2007. Their brief was to make the course blend more naturally into its New England setting. Here's what we think is going to be this tournament's Hell Hole.
As Morrissey once sang, “Heaven knows I’m miserable now”. And as the heavens have opened, it’s chucking it down outside. When all we realy want to be doing is following a little white orb around a prepared field of grass with holes cut into it, making said orb disappear down a hole 18 times. But help is at hand as we’ve got some of the latest waterproofs for your perusal to help keep you dry when you want to let it fly…
Two time major winner, and GolfPunk legend John Daly was last night rushed to hospital after collapsing on the 18th tee at Deerfield Golf Club. Daly who placed at No.4 in our Top 50 GolfPunks, was playing a small tournament in Jackson, Mississippi when he had breathing difficulties on the last hole.
