What a record 

This year we've been treated to some wonderful individual performances; Jordan Spieth's Major quest springs to mind, before Jason Day took over and put on one or two exhibitions himself. However, the women's game has a superstar of its own and her victory at the Taiwan Championship on Sunday is arguably the story on the season. 

New Zealand's Lydia Ko hit a final-round seven-under 65 to win by nine shots and reclaim the number one spot. It was the 18-year-old's fourth round of under 70 as she became the youngest player to earn 10 wins on the LPGA Tour. Now that's impressive. 

So, for all our junior members out there, the bar has been set! 

Back to club life and now that the clocks have gone back, it's the ideal time to work on your game. If you're struggling to get your weekly fix of golf as the nights close in, why not take to the range instead? Come and speak to the team and we can help ensure you are making the most of your range time, as opposed to making bad habits worse - get in touch here.

The Baxter Trophy which is for the best 'Non-Congu' handicap home pair was won by Alfie Hocking and Craig Andrews. Congratulations to everyone who took part.
