Record breaker

This week saw James Mack break our student record on the Gainsborough course at Stoke by Nayland Hotel, Golf and Spa. 

James shot an impressive -7 (64) to beat the existing student record by 1 stroke, previously held by Jacob Hassan, gained in September 2016. 

James has had a fantastic year; making his Euro Pro Tour debut in March, playing in the Qualifying Schools at Stoke by Nayland, finishing 2nd in the individual gross at the British Schools and Colleges finals and recently winning the Lee Westwood Golf Tour event at Stoke by Nayland. 

James Mack started the school in September 2015 off 5 and has now reduced his handicap to 0.3 with a scoring average of 70.4. 

James is continuing at the school for another year prior to hopefully embarking on a career on tour.

Another great result, this time from Shay McQueen who shot (66) -6 on the Constable course, that's only 1 less than the course record currently 65 held by Joe Fryer in 2013.

George crowned nett champion

Essex 2nd year student George Lancaster has been crowned nett champion in the Golf Club Championship at Chart Hills Golf Club during the weekend.

In a field of 50 George produced fantastic scores of 75/73, to finish 1st nett and 2nd gross.

Since being at the Lee Westwood Golf School George has reduced his handicap from 11 to 4.4 and has seen his scoring average reduce by 11 shots.

George is working hard with the Lee Westwood Golf coaches in preparation of his next journey at Tournament Golf College.

We wish him all the very best.

WELCOME BACK

 

This week we hosted our first ever former students reunion at High Legh Park Golf Club in Cheshire, when last year’s students were invited back to play against the current cohort.

It was great to welcome back Adam Ranson, Brook Coward, Will Armitage, Tom Vyce, Andrew Ni & Matt Osborn, who all left the school in June 2016.

Banter levels were high as they tee’d off in bright, sunny conditions and we are pleased to report a clean sweep for the school team, who won every single one of their matches!

We hope everyone who attended enjoyed the day; Tom Vyce said “I had a really enjoyable day, it was great to catch up with all the lads & create some more fun memories with them”.

Overall the whole day was a great success, and we look forward to developing the current vs ex students format for next year, and seeing a lot more familiar faces for the event.

Students enjoy Ireland

Last week a selection of our students enjoyed a trip to our sister school, Darren Clarke Golf School, in Northern Ireland.

For 5 days the students had full access to the fantastic facilities and technology that the Antrim based school has to offer.

Alongside the golf training facilities, the students had the opportunity to play the local courses, including Hilton Templepatrick and Portrush, home of the 2019 British Open.  On the Hilton Templepatrick course golf performance programme student Charley Allsopp returned the best score of the day with a nett 68 (shooting +1 gross on the back nine with 3 birdies).

A kick-around on the onsite football pitch and a competitive race around the local go kart track finished the trip off on a high. #irelandtrip
