Ryder Cup is this week!
With the Ryder Cup starting this Friday at Gleneagles, there is much anticipation in the air. Being the first Ryder Cup in Scotland since Muirfield 1973, it is bound to produce a closely encountered and exciting match. The worlds best players will showcase their skills on this momentus global stage.
Who do you think will win?
Is there any European pairings you would love to see take on certain Americans?
Good luck to our many members who are travelling up to watch it first hand and to those who have been lucky enough to be a marshall or volunteer. We hope you have a great week.
It`s certainly been a good spell for visitor numbers at Ladybank, with the Ryder Cup bringing various nationalities to our shores. We have been inundated with requests to play the course with lots of great feedback on the conditioning of the course. Let's hope the weather holds up a few more days and the golfing world gets to see our country at it`s best.
I`m lucky enough to be going up to the Ryder Cup on Friday personally. Having been involved in the Ryder Cup bidding process whilst at Gleneagles many moons ago it will be great treat to see how it all pans out. The level of detail and planning that has gone into the event is second to none. Let's wish everyone well on a superb event and of course a European victory.

Looking for a GPS system to help lower your scores?
Most amateur golfers tend to come up short on many approach shots to greens, this can be down to in-decision or poor knowledge of how far each club carries. Utilising a GPS system will then provide you with Front/Middle/Back yardages on all holes as you play, allowing you to gauge how far each club carries. This will then allow you to consistently choose the correct club for your confronted yardage, reducing the chances of coming up short in a hazard etc.
And finally we have the perfect solution at a great price:
