Pro's Day
I am delighted to announce that the club have given me 29th August for my 2015 event. I will be taking entries from 1st May.
Callaway Open Magic
As you read this the 144th Open Championship will have teed-off, the first game getting underway at 6.32am. I think it is the best four days of golf you see all year. If you have managed to plan a visit then enjoy yourself.
On Monday I was through in St Andrews and I must say the course is looking great, my only wish is a little wind to test the best players in the world. My main reason for going through on Monday was to attend Callaway's pre-Open event, held at the Castle course. This was a unique event where I was fortunate enough to see Henrik Stenson (pictured below) and the other staff players - Grace, Warren, Manaserro, Larrazabal, Boyd, Willett and Thomas Bjorn. It was brilliant to be close up watching these greats hit the ball, and to sneak a wee hit myself.

Last Saturday we had the Gents' Gourock Burgh event. We managed, after some worry, to get the course playable and although the rain came in late afternoon we completed the event. The big winners on the day were Gordon Baynes with a nett 70 to take the handicap trophy and Robert Clark adding to his trophy cabinet with the scratch prize (75).
In the coming weeks we have the Senior & Gents' Championships - the entry sheets for both are now up in clubhouse.
