Welcome to the long awaited issue thirteen, documenting people and places around the game
we all love. A great selection in this issue covering our readers fabulous day at Turnbery with
TaylorMade, The Captain, super cool Holland Cooper, some seriously bright sparks over at
Nightsports and more amazing competitions. Don’t forget to enter! The highlight for me being
our time with the SDGP and British Inclusive Golf as sponsors of the Phoenix Cup, a Ryder
Cup style match, proving that disability is not a barrier to golf. We met some truly great folks
and are already looking forward to next year’s event. (Assuming all big ends are ok… don’t ask!)
I hope you enjoy reading this issue and we look forward to producing the next. The Editor.
Thanks in particular to Jess, Liam and Mike of TaylorMade and to Rick and his team at
Turnberry for looking after us so well on the day. Great to work with the team at Holland
Cooper in particular Louisa and Jade. Special thanks go to Peter Jones CBE who very kindly
agreed to appear in this issue. Many thanks go to Gary and Simone Cunningham, Rhona
Monaghan, Alasdair Good PGA, Ian Hugglestone, AJ, AM, NJ, AC, SR, Karen Ballantyne, Iain
Prime, Lionel Freedman and The Old Hacker for their contributions.
