We'd like to take this opportunity to wish you a Happy Holidays and a very Merry Christmas from all at Golf Monthly. Thank you for sharing your 2025 with us!
Greatly enjoyed Thurlestone - had wall-to-wall brilliant sunshine and strong 25mph winds…what’s not to love!?! The views are simply breathtaking
I hadn’t picked up a club in at least 2 months and so was fairly pleased with how I played…putting however was as usual, bloody awful 🤣🙄🤣
I booked Thurlestone…
In a few short days time I will let any and all avid readers know what I thought of it, how well/badly I played, and what ‘she’ thought of it all..🤪🤣
I’m escaping to Devon for three days over Christmas with a lady who may make the Cut to one day turn into Mrs Evemccc
I will be staying in Salcombe and hope to have a round with Her walking round admiring my ball striking with my long irons (😀🤣)
Ive seen photos of Thurlestone and it looks...
As per thread title - my friend’s Dad lives adjacent to the 18th fairway at Hoylake — I got sent a video and photos from my friend last night. Apparently a bomb was found and set off yesterday in a controlled explosion, merely yards behind the 18th green…😳😬🤪🤣
EDITED: to say ‘adjacent to the...
You can only play and dominate (as both Tiger and obvs Jack did) those in the field against you..Obvs it’s one thing you cannot control

What Scheffler is doing is fantastic...
Surely part of being ‘great’ is also all peripheral things outside of just talent and application, that will impact your career’s success and longevity.
Taking the right decisions, saying no to the wrong things and in being wise with how to spend your time - and who to spend it with - can...
I spent a fortune and basically all my holiday from work (pretty much) playing most of the top links and heathlands in the UK between 2021 and 2023….and I loved every single minute ❤️
I can’t really choose the best or my favourite, and can make a claim for a large handful being the best….i...
Echoing the many comments about The Judge….the most beautiful square cut I’ve ever seen, and destructive batsmen at No. 5
Remember seeing him getting hit in the face to bouncer from the Windies pace attack. Barely flinched. Never wore a grill and rarely a helmet….very sad about his struggles...
Of course all people have their moments and any / all football teams have their section of idiot fans…but there’s something about Liverpool fans in particular that is simultaneously sanctimonious, permanently outraged and yet at the same time hostile and vitriolic to anyone who leaves their club 🤣
Of course London is a marvellous place, and has many great things about it…It’s just that it absolutely isn’t anything like as good as it used to be 20-25 years ago and it is going downhill pretty fast - esp in the last 10 years..
IN.MY.OPINION of course 😉
I have never used the catering facilities at my club, except for when I have had to (when it’s mandatory after the twice yearly jacket-and-tie, toast Her Majesty (RIP) / His Majesty, Port and Stilton following 3 course meal 36 Hole Club champs —- and I never would at my home club…I’m only 15...
