Hello Golfers,

The Zurich Classic – a unique tournament that flip-flops between fourball & foursomes formats – served up one of the most enthralling shoot-outs of the year on Sunday evening as Australia and South Africa added another classic sporting rivalry to the list.

The team from Down Under, Cameron Smith & Mark Leishman, traded birdies and bogeys in frantic fashion with South Africa’s Louis Oosthuizen and Charl Schwartzel. After Smith found the water on the 17th, Leishman chipped-in to save the day. A rash drive into the drink from Oosthuizen in the playoff proved far more costly; failing to recover and handing the Aussies a hard-fought, thrilling victory in New Orleans.

Scrambling proved the decisive factor here. We all make mistakes, but how we deal with them is what matters most. You can learn how to scramble for a tidy scorecard through our coaching sessions by clicking the button below now.

Good for your sole

Pulling out the spikeless golf shoes for the first time every year is a great feeling. It’s a sign that the sun is finally here! But, whilst spikeless shoes are perfect for summer on the golf course, they’re not restricted to just that.

Under Armour Glide SL golf shoes

Take Under Armour’s Glide SL shoes (shown above) as an example. UA Rotational Resistance soles provide so much grip and traction that you can play on any turf without worrying about slipping. In fact, they’re so confident of the all-weather performance that these shoes are even waterproof.

On top of that, the ultra-stylish design means they’re not restricted to the course either. You can walk straight off the 18th green and into the clubhouse knowing that you still look the part, and that’s something we’re huge fans of. Take a closer look at Under Armour's range on our website.
