Yes it’s upon us already and for those of you that haven’t asked Santa Claus for your presents yet (or bought them!) we have our top golfing picks for gifts in the Your Golf Gear section. No matter what budget you’re working to there is something for everyone. The European Tour came to a close with Rory pipping Danny Willett for a spot atop of the Race to Dubai rankings on the final weekend, but for us it was watching the performance of Matthew Fitzpatrick that made the viewing even more interesting as he picked up yet another top ten finish in his rookie season. We caught up with Matthew and gathered his thoughts on his first year on the tour, his maiden victory and how he has settled in to life as European Tour Pro.
