Hands up! In 2024 I told you that I was determined not to become a grumpy golfer. Well, I am sorry to say that I have finally succumbed. I am now turning into a grumpy golfer - and I don’t like it.

1 week ago | golfshake.com | Derek Clements

In the days since JJ Spaun holed that incredible putt to win the 125th US Open at Oakmont much has been said and written about the course. How fair was it? Spaun’s winning total was 279.

Do You Play More Golf Courses Than The Average Golfer

1 week ago | golfshake.com | Kieran Clark

There is so much to love about golf, but perhaps the greatest aspect of this wonderful game is the plentiful number of courses that we all have the opportunity to play. Unlike other sports with established pitch and court sizes, playing golf is a uniquely varied endeavour, as each layout you take on is distinctive and presents a range of challenges, a diversity of terrain, and aesthetics of the landscape that are particular to that one course.
