The first man to ever do this...

It was very much a case of ‘by how many’ for Tyrrell Hatton on Sunday afternoon as he headed into the final round of the Dunhill Links Championship with a five-shot cushion. The Englishman finished his round with a 24-under-par total to successfully defend the tournament he won a year earlier, the first golfer to ever achieve the feat.

With the Dunhill taking place across St Andrews, Kingsbarns and Carnoustie, it’s a great opportunity to see who copes best with the unique challenge that links golf presents. On Friday, Tommy Fleetwood took apart Carnoustie to shoot a course-record 63, meaning  he possessed course records at two of the three courses at that point in time. That was until Ross Fisher’s Sunday exploits at St Andrews, which saw him post a new record with an 11-under 61 after a three-putt par at the infamous 18th.

Fleetwood will certainly head into next year’s Open Championship at Carnoustie with positive thoughts, whilst links golf clearly brings out the best in Hatton’s game. Maybe we'll see an English name on the Claret Jug for the first time in over 25 years next July….

How often do you use yours?

If you’re going to challenge your best ever score and start getting that handicap down, sharp wedge play will be an absolute must and to have that you’ll need the tools for the job.

Wedge Options

You use them all time

As you can see above, you need to be able to use a wedge from a variety of situations, which makes it so important to have a set-up of two, three or even four that suit your personal technique and the type of shots you like to hit.

With this modern PING Glide 2.0 wedge there are four sole options to aid different swing styles, as well as lofts from 46-60° available to try. We can explain all these options during a fitting and discuss exactly what you’re looking for from your new wedges.

Need a bit of help?

Think back to the distance you hit the ball in the winter... is it as far as you hit it during the summer? The answer is probably no and there are various reasons for that, but using a ball that’ll give you that distance back over the winter could be beneficial.

Illustration

Not hitting it as far?

Cold winter air is more dense than warmer summer air, increasing both lift and drag forces on your ball, which results in a higher and shorter trajectory. When you combine this with softer fairways, typically colder muscles and more layers of clothing, the distance will keep dropping off.

Srixon AD333

Unlock more distance

A distance-style ball can be a great counter to these effects, helping you to unlock a few extra yards. The 2017 Srixon AD333 has a lower-compression Energetic Gradient Growth Core that reduces driver spin and an aerodynamic Speed Dimple pattern that reduces drag for longer carries.
