Thank you to the members that have already paid.

  

The action gets underway...

How did you enjoy the first instalment of Rory versus Spieth? It's one-nil to Rory, but only in terms of scoring - Rickie Fowler picking up the first 'big' trophy of the season.

Both McIlroy and Spieth enjoyed top-5 finishes at the Abu Dhabi HSBC Golf Championship, but what was interesting to note, as well, was that four of the top six golfers were in the field and all four finished in the top six; well, 'cream rises to the top' as they say. It may only be January, but it's already looking like we could be in for a top season. Is it too early to start making predictions for who will win the Masters?

Back in the UK and we're not quite enjoying the kind of weather the pros had in the Middle East, even if fog did intervene at one stage, but there's lots of activity to look forward to - and one or two fantastic promotions coming up, news of which will follow. So, if you're suffering from the winter blues, fear not because we'll be brightening things up soon.

Changes to ruling

After 10 years of research and discussions the handicap governing body, CONGU, has changed the allowance for Fourball Betterball. The NEW allowance has been increased from 3/4 to 90% of your handicap.

Simple Tip - Instead of working out 9/10ths of your handicap, just take off 10%.

Upcoming Events

We have a number of events coming up over the next few months including: 

• Sunday, 7 February - Sunday Lunch

Mark cards at the right time (pace of play)

If it's clear to play, the only priority when you reach the next tee is for the person with the honour to be ready to hit. There's plenty of time to mark cards while others are hitting. So if you know it's your go first, have your glove on ready to tee it up as soon as you get to the tee.
