Tour news

A tight affair

The heatwave continues and what a weekend it was in general for British sport. England cruising into the World Cup semi-finals with a 2-0 victory over Sweden, it was also the British Grand Prix where Lewis Hamilton recovered from the back of the field to finish in 2nd place and Scotland’s Russell Knox won the Dubai Duty Free Irish Open.

It was a tight affair on the European Tour this week with a playoff hole deciding who took home the Irish Open and it was the Scotsman Russell Knox who defeated Ryan Fox of New Zealand. Knox holed two superb putts on the 18th green at Ballyliffin GC to claim his second European Tour victory. Can you tell the difference? Click here to view.

Attentions now turn to the Scottish Open this week where players will be putting in their final preparations for the third major of the year, The Open. Who will find some form heading into one of the toughest golfing destinations in the world, Carnoustie and will America make it three in a row...

It couldn't be clearer

Playing golf in the sunshine is something we all love, but it does have its downsides when bright light compromises your view. This is why Oakley offers such a great range of eye-catching, golf-specific sunglasses to help your game.

Don't put up with squinting
Trying to track a drive into low sun is just one problem summer golf can create. It also becomes more difficult to pick an aiming point and to read greens when bright light disguises subtle contours.

One eyewear option we love thanks to its cool frame style you can wear off-course is the Oakley Targetline (pictured here). It comes with the option of Prizm golf lenses that enhance clarity and maximise contrast to give you better depth perception and make slopes easier to spot, as displayed in the image above.

Hot off the press

Motocaddy’s electric trolley range is split into the S-Series and M-Series, the latter having recently undergone a major overhaul with four new compact trolleys replacing the extremely popular previous generation.

Which trolley is the right one for you?
If you’re seeking a compact-folding electric trolley, Motocaddy's updated M-Series range is made up of four great options that all include super-lightweight Lithium batteries. All M-Series trolleys are car-boot friendly thanks to space-saving inverted wheels that have significantly reduced their folded size, which is 11% smaller than its nearest competitor.

The new M5 CONNECT boasts GPS yardages on its screen display, plus it receives handy phone and app notifications. The updated M3 PRO offers features including a security pin code, a six-step Adjustable Distance Control (up to 60 yards) and nine speed settings that allow it to travel at your walking pace. The new M1 is the simplest offering of the four, featuring a soft-touch ergonomic handle and an oversize frame to offer robust stability, but is also available in a Downhill Control (DHC) model that comes with an electronic parking brake.

Spotlight: adidas Tour360 Knit shoe

We've spoken a lot about the adidas Tour360 BOOST 2.0 shoe this year, but there is an alternative option for those of you after something a little more lightweight and breathable when walking the fairways.

The Tour360 Knit boasts many of the fantastic features of the aforementioned shoe, but has replaced the traditional leather upper with an ultralight and strechable PrimeKnit material to maximise comfort.
