Rahm roars in the Bahamas

The chances of securing victory in an 18-man event are considerably better than any other week on the PGA Tour, granted. But when you consider all the competitors were inside the World’s top 30 and that the Hero World Challenge has the euphoria of being hosted by a certain Tiger Woods, this is anything but a ‘mickey-mouse’ tournament.

Heading into Sunday’s final round, Jon Rahm shared the overnight lead with big-hitting duo Tony Finau and Henrik Stenson. Following a tense opening battle between Rahm and Finau, the Spaniard pulled away as he found 12 of his last 13 greens during a highly impressive display of ball striking. The end result? A final-round 65 (-7) and a four-shot victory; his third individual title of 2018.

Finau denies Rose

Although Finau's tournament didn't end as he had hoped when we woke up Sunday morning, his birdie down the 72nd hole was enough to earn him outright second place, ahead of Justin Rose in third. The Englishman needed to finish T2 or better to return to the summit of the World Rankings but must now wait at least one more week to topple Brooks Koepka.

Titleist Xmas Ball Personalisation - Option 3

How many greens?

If you had to describe your iron play in one word, what would it be? Pin-seeker? Average? Inconsistent? Regardless of how your irons were this year, 2019 brings about a new season so there's no better time to start working on your game - there's always room for improvement.

One way to do this is by getting custom fitted for Titleist's AP1 and AP3 irons.

These clubs boast some outstanding technology to help you make more greens in regulation. The AP1 is Titleist's Ultimate Game Improvement iron, offering a higher launch and great forgiveness so every shot you hit is closer to your target. Combine this with AP3 in your long irons for distance where you need it most, and you have the perfect set for 2019.

Video of the Week

At this time of year, you need a waterproof jacket that you can trust to keep you dry on the golf course. One of the most popular in-store is ProQuip's Pro-Flex EVO, so we thought we'd do a little test - using our mobile phone - to see just how waterproof it really is.

I hope you enjoyed the newsletter, have a great golfing weekend and I hope to see you at the club very shortly!
