World of golf

Rahmbo runs riot...

To some back in his homeland, Jon Rahm is already the King of Spain and he cemented his status as Spain’s number one golfer with a five-shot victory in a home-grown top three lockout at the Open de Espana.

In the end, it proved quite comfortable for Rahm who converted his five-shot overnight lead into victory ahead of Cabrera-Bello (-17) and Del Val (-15).

Perhaps more importantly for Rahm, the win - his third of 2019 - puts him in pole position in the lucrative Race to Dubai standings, leapfrogging Open Champion Shane Lowry to top spot.

The victory also sees Rahm jump to fourth in the World Rankings, with three Europeans currently occupying three of the top five positions (Rory McIlroy second & Justin Rose fifth).

Good work, guys!

Blast from the past: Drivers

Who remembers the days of hickory shafted clubs and plus fours? Some people say that golf was harder back then with a lot less help from our equipment, so we thought we'd take you on a trip down memory lane to see how far technology has come. Enjoy the ride.

PING G410 Plus driver
PING G410 Plus driver

We're certain that the first image above has brought back some fond memories for a lot of you - some of you may still have one in the bag!

Once upon a time, small clubhead sizes were the norm, which offered very little in the way of forgiveness off the tee with adjustability just another way of saying you needed to change up your swing.

Thankfully, technology continues to develop and today's drivers are unrecognisable from what's been and come before.

Take PING's G410 Plus driver as an example. It boasts a moveable weight on the perimeter of the head that allows us to promote a fade, draw or neutral ball flight. It all means one thing -  a custom fitting is crucial.
