PGA Alliance at Concrawood GC
On Tuesday I travelled to Concrawood Golf Club in Castleblayney to play in the last PGA Alliance of the winter. Off the Gold tees the course played brutally long in the damp conditions but I was pleased to break par and finish tied 3rd in a very strong field. In the overall season I finished runner up in the Order of Merit. I would like to thank my team Harry Mckee, Vice-Captain Gary Patterson and Simon Swail who have played all winter on some great venues around the country, thanks lads.

Sometimes it's not only their golfing ability that impresses us when watching the world's best on TV, but also the stylish clothing that they wear. Golfers, like Rafa Cabrera-Bello, always wear the latest golf-specific clothing to give them an edge on the course, as you can see below. |
 | Rafa Cabrera-Bello | FootJoy clothing
|
|
FootJoy's latest collection for spring/summer '19 oozes style and is, without doubt, one of their best clothing ranges to date. The main thing we love this year is FootJoy's combination of striking colours and block designs, enabling them to create a fashionable range that wouldn't look out of place off the course.
You too can dress like Rafa by popping into the shop and taking a look at the full FootJoy collection in-store. |
