Fore A Laugh - Would you have played golf in 1940? π
We all know it must have been tough living during World War 2. So maybe you'd look to play golf to escape reality?
It doesn't look like playing golf escaped reality too much thoughπ

Personally, I think some of these rules are a bit too generous. I mean, allowing players to take cover without penalty because of gunfire or bombs falling?
What's In The Bag - Wyndham Clark πΊπΈ
Wyndham Clark won his first PGA Tour event last weekend, but what was in his bag for the win? We've taken a look π

Driver: Titleist TSi3 (9 degrees)
3-wood: TaylorMade Stealth 2 (15 degrees)
Irons: Titleist T200 (3), Titleist 620 CB (4-9)
Wedges: Titleist Vokey Design SM9 (46 degrees, 52 degrees, 56 degrees), Vokey Design WedgeWorks (60 degrees)
Putter: Odyssey Jailbird Versa (SuperStroke Grip)
Ball: Titleist Pro V1x
No real suprises here, though the Taylormade Stealth 2 3-wood is interesting in a Titleist dominated bag!
Equipment Round Up - New SkyTrak+ Launch Monitor π»
More and more amateur golfers now own personal launch monitors. The latest to hit the market is the SkyTrak+. We've taken a closer look at itπ

Who is it for? All golfers (who have a sizable budget).
What features does it have? SkyTrak+ utilises both radar and cameras for aball/club measurement, most launch monitors use just one. The dopplar radar technology is coupled with machine-learning algorithms to deliver precise club data points such as club head speed, club path, face angle and smash factor.
How accurate is it? We've not tested one of these so can't really say. SkyTrak are claiming this will be as accurate as a GC Quad or Trakman though - big claims!
Is this for indoor use or outdoor use? It can be used both indoors or outdoors, however outdoors it must be used off a mat. It's compatible with either laptops or mobile devices.
Verdict - Without having used one of these devices, it looks really promising. The last SkyTrak was brilliant and it looks like this could be even better. However, with an RRP of $2995, it's only for those taking their games very seriously!
Tee Time Equipment Rating: Potentially 9/10 β
On Tour - Wyndham Wins π
PGA Tour
The PGA Tour hosted the Wells Fargo Championship last week at Quail Hollow - what a course!
There was a runaway winner in the end - Wyndham Clark, who finished -19. Xander Schauffele finished second on -15.
This was Wyndham Clark's first PGA Tour win at the age of 29, could this be the first of many?
DP World Tour
It was the Italian Open on the DP World Tour last week, where Adrian Meronk claimed his 3rd DP World Tour win since July last year. The Polish 29 year old is certainly one to watch π.
Hole Of The Week - 14th Hole, Royal Porthcawl Golf Club, Wales π΄σ §σ ’σ ·σ ¬σ ³σ Ώ

Prepare for a thrilling challenge at Royal Porthcawl Golf Club in Porthcawl, Wales. The 14th hole is a remarkable par 3 with a plateau green, but don't be fooled by its beauty. Deep bunkers and thick rough lie in wait, ready to swallow any wayward shot. The crosswind adds an extra layer of difficulty, making precision crucial.
