    Long way to go. I love the FA Cup. There is nothing like 3rd round weekend.

    2026 Targets

    The goal for 2025 was get down to a 18.something index and consistent 'bogey golf'. Got to 19.2 in the end so not far off. I'd like to say I could come down by a couple of shots, however with baby #1 expected in June, frankly playing at all after May looks unlikely! So that being the case...

    Wristwatch insurance advice, please.

    One key thing to do - household or specialist insurer - is get some 'candid' photos of it being worn to prove you own it! when you don't have a receipt from purchase, should the worst happen to it, a photo of you holding a pint in your living room with a watch peculiarly front and centre will...

    I bought today.....

    Since buying my P770s, I've got a hankering for something (else) to sit between the 4iron and 4 wood. Can't decide between a 7 wood and hybrid... might have to buy one of each, take to a range and then probably decide I want to keep them both!

    I understand where you’re coming from, but disagree entirely. There is no need at all for grown adults, who know exactly what they are doing, to mock poverty. The poverty gap is getting wider and wider in this country. Foodbank usage increasing on a monthly basis. “Oh it’s just a laugh, learn...

    Nice of the Arsenal fans to make it 30 mins before singing “feed the scousers”. Incredible response from the Everton scoreboard people to put up the Fans Supporting Foodbanks logos. It’s good to know making light of poverty is still absolutely fine…

    Best course played & why?

    Lucky enough to have played a number of top courses this year. Really enjoyed Blackmoor for the first time at the H4H day, loved both courses at Sunningdale 2 weeks before the Seniors Open. That stretch on the Old from 3-10 is just glorious wherever you look. But without a shadow of doubt the...

    6'7" big Dan Burn is but a wall flower and wouldn't dare foul anyone. Must be a foul against him. Clearly.
