Which way round? I’m a lefty but golfing magazines never give the tips in a left hand format! It would be much more engaging and easier to understand if you when you wrote you golf tuition articles you used the terms “front and back”, this way there can be no confusion. Peter Dans, Winchester Slooooooow Play! I was recently watching the Nedbank Golf challenge where on one hole all three players managed to fluff one of their tee or fairway shots in to the rough. By the time they approached the areas where they had lost their balls a marshal or spectator had already identified the position, what I saw next was each player taking 10-15 minutes deciding how to take 1 shot. The hole ended up taking over 25 minutes to play. No wonder slow play has crept into our game when we see this on our TV, at no point did anyone tell them to get shift on. If slow isn’t being clamped down on at the top what hope do we have for the younger audience who are growing up with it! Lee Cooper, London Cater for us! The golf channel can be viewed in Iceland, Ukraine and Slovakia, all countries with less of its population playing golf than her in the UK. We have over 3.5 million regular golfers but we don’t have the golf channel, why? Surely it could help the game grow? Terry Grant, Manchester PENNY FOR YOUR THOUGHTS... Got something to say?
