Hi I'm doing a piece on the FootJoy camping experience and wondered if anyone did it at St Andrews last year or before that? If so, could we have a quick chat to hear about your experience. Thanks

Report in the Telegraph that says that Aunty is cutting costs and won’t be televising Augusta… no surprise at all really. Can anyone tell me what time the highlights were shown on BBC last year?

There are some nice memories here of Barry from two of his pals - Shacklady spoke for 40 minutes and absolutely idolised him https://www.golfmonthly.com/features/every-player-gave-him-a-hug-and-had-a-few-words-and-that-is-something-that-i-will-never-forget

This is perfect, thank you all ?

Am looking for a bit of help (again) for a piece - we need some advice for new golfers from golfers who have played it for years. It can be quite daunting so we're trying to collate a template for people who are considering giving golf a go Any advice should be a minimum of around 80 words and...

Other than costs to the tour is there any downside to this? They've just televised all four days of the Challenge Tour Grand Final in Mallorca so you would imagine it would be similar costs. The appetite might not be quite as much as some of us believe but surely it would provide more drama than...

Apparently none of the players knew this was going to happen, be interesting how the other tours step up as a load of players do EuroPro week in, week out

Hi Am putting together more explainer pieces. One is whether the roll-up still happens in your club? Obviously a lot of booking procedures have changed in the past few years so trying to gather if roll-ups happen anywhere these days, cheers

Doesn't require a lot of investigation - the whole concept is built around money, and gloating about it, and then they don't mention it which was weird.

Just meant the whole thing is all about the money, which is why I haven't bothered with it, but then they didn't mention it as though it was a vulgar subject. I am quite intrigued as to how much someone was paid after playing nine holes in 52 shots

Watched my first chunk of LIV Golf last night and quite enjoyed it (as there was nothing else on) Likes Shotgun start - non-stop action (lack of ads) was pretty amazing viewing Playing in shorts - who really cares? Dislikes The hole microphone was particularly grating Still don't know which...

Most of the above, not to be repeated but we've made up since

I caddied for Gary in the Seniors Scottish Open at Fairmont St Andrews, metronomic accuracy with every club and an incredible putter though, fair to say, maybe not the easiest person to caddy for

This week I played with Charlotte Heath who's the 35th best amateur in the world and who was runner-in the European Amateur last month. She plays off +6 (PLUS SIX if you're reading this on a vidiprinter) which is ridiculous. Carried it 230 yards, missed one fairway, hit the green with 4/4...
