Hello Golfers,

Welcome to our first newsletter of 2021!

Firstly, we hope you enjoyed the recent festive period as much as possible. Secondly, following the First Minister's announcement earlier this week, playing golf is still permitted during this latest lockdown. This is great news for golfers across the country, so please continue to follow the rules and stay safe whilst taking to the course.

In this week's email, we look ahead to some exciting events taking place this year as well as a look back at the luckiest shots seen on the European Tour in our Video of the Week.

If you'd like to get in touch about anything golf-related, reply to this email or give us a call. Enjoy the read.

Club news

Golfing update

As a result of the government's new restrictions put in place this week we are now back to playing two balls only. At this time we can't accept any visitors or guests as we need to give our members a fair chance to play. We understand tee times might be difficult to get in the coming weeks, but we had adjusted the tee sheet to get as many members out on the golf course as we can.

The clubhouse and locker rooms will remain closed untill at least the end of the month but we will are able to operate as a click collect service in the pro shop whilst also providing take away coffee and snacks. Any products can purchased via click and collect from our website or from foremostgolf.com.

Coaching and club fitting is still allowed one to one outdoors so if you would like to work on your game or looking to get the correct clubs to suit your swing contact a member of the team today.

These are hard times but let's be glad some of us can still get out for a game of golf, let's hope it's not too long before we can welcome everyone back to the links, stay safe and we will see you soon!

Golf on Tour

A look ahead at what's to come...

2020 was a year like no other, both in golf and in the world as a whole. However, with 2021 now upon us, let’s take a look at some of the events for us golf fans to get excited about this year…

Firstly, The Masters returns to its April date, just five months on from Dustin Johnson’s record-breaking win back in November. This is followed by three more Majors in the men's game and five in the women's, including the one that got away in 2020: The Open Championship!

To top it all off, we have both the Ryder Cup and Solheim Cup in the same month - September. Let’s hope Team Europe are partying twice this September! Oh, and let's not forget about the Olympics!

We hope you’re just as excited about golf in 2021, and if you’re itching to play your part then feel free to get in touch with any questions via the button below.

Something to work towards

Come rain or shine, golfers never need an excuse to dust off the cobwebs and get onto the course. So, with lots of golf to (hopefully) look forward to in 2021, there's no better time to conjure up some golf-based resolutions for the year ahead.

Making resolutions

You may have decided you’d like to reduce the number of three-putts you have each round (don't we all!) or to get less frustrated when you hit a bad shot. Whatever your resolutions are, we're here to help in any way possible.

How we can help

I think we can all agree that golf is much more fun when you’re playing well. So, reply to this email with your number one resolution for the year ahead and let's see if we can make it happen together!

Walking in a winter wonderland

Long walks are as much a part of the festive season as eating too much turkey and dozing on the sofa afterwards. Greg Norman once said ‘Happiness is a long walk with a putter’. Now, it would be a little odd to take your putter on a festive walk, but one thing you'll definitely need is a good jumper!

Glenmuir pullovers - available through us

Well, whether you’re on or off the golf course, that walk is a lot less enjoyable if you’re caught out in the wind and rain. That’s why it is so important to have a layering piece that really gets the job done.

Glenmuir’s Arran pullover does exactly that, and with a flourish; giving you complete protection, a stylish look and freedom of movement in your swing. Now that’s happiness, Mr Norman.

Video of the Week

Every good round of golf requires a bit of luck, be it a favourable bounce around the greens or a preferable lie off the fairway. Sometimes it is far more extreme, as this highlight reel from the European Tour showcases. Enjoy.
