Latest updates
Out on the course Darren has started turfing the new bunkers on the 3rd and filling in the trench which has the new sprinkler system for the green. All the bunkers on the 1st have been dug out ready to start work on.
I am hoping the new diaries will arrive on Friday and will have a box for you to collect them in the shop and behind the bar.

Mickelson has his eye-in
Phil Mickelson endured a frustrating wait to record his fifth AT&T Pebble Beach title this week. Following a delayed start to Sunday's final round due to overnight rainfall and a mid-round hailstorm, Mickelson rolled back the years. Lefty executed shot after shot to find himself three ahead with just two holes remaining, before getting forced off the course due to bad light.
With just 'lefty' and 54-hole leader Paul Casey taking to the course on Monday, a Mickelson win was all but a formality with just the final two holes left to navigate. And so it proved.
Arguably, the most impressive feat of the week came during Mickelson's opening round, when he managed to hit every single fairway for the first time in over two decades. We all know that splitting the fairway from the tee is a sure-fire way to take shots off your game, but we also know it is no easy task. Practice makes perfect but if you find yourself going wayward more often than not, or just want to tidy up your game, then come and have a chat with us to enhance your chances of staying out of the rough.
