Last Friday saw our annual presentation of prizes which was a very good evening with a number of members attending to collect their silverware.
"Winning today, I feel has got me closer to being able to compete a lot better in the Major tournaments. My next goal is, of course, to win a Major and I'm going to do all that I can to prepare well for that."
These comments were made by Japan's Hideki Matsuyama following his victory in last week's WGC-HSBC Champions event.
The four Majors aside, there's nothing quite like winning a World Golf Championships event. Many see it as a sign that the winner is ready to compete at the highest level, and this is certainly the case for Matsuyama.
The 24-year-old fired 29 birdies over the week to finish seven clear of Henrik Stenson and Daniel Berger on 23-under-par. To put this achievement into perspective, only Tiger Woods has managed to win a WGC event by seven shots or more - something he's done on four separate occasions. Not bad company to hold.
Whether it was Matsuyama's ability to consistently hit fairways and greens or his solid short game that impressed you the most, make sure you come and see one of the team to get your game in shape this winter.
With Christmas just around the corner we have some fantastic winter stock for both Gents and Ladies including Galvin Green Windstopper clothing as well as Under Armour clothing that has a technology to retain body heat for the gents.
For the Ladies we have Sabbot hat and scarf sets with some great golf accessories to match along with a wide range of winter jackets/clothing from several brands.

Give a Garmin
Golf’s a hard enough game at the best of times, but knowing how far to hit the ball makes it that much easier. Whether you want the yardage to the front, middle or back, or you wish to know the distance to the corner of the dogleg from the tee, Garmin’s Approach S2 GPS watch will give you all of this and more.
