Tiger’s Top Ten Shots

What constitutes a great golf shot? Does bombing an arrow straight drive down the middle count as a great shot? How about holing an important two footer under pressure? Maybe so but Your Golf Travel believes it takes something more special to deserve to be labelled as a great shot. The truly great shots are rare; not shots that come around once or twice in a round, but shots that you have to wait for; shots that require imagination and courage; shots that come out of the blue and leave us in a state of shock.

Shell Houston Open Betting Preview

The PGA Tour heads to Texas and the Shell Houston Open this week – the last event before the US Masters. The event takes place over the par-72 Redstone course, and the defending champion is Anthony Kim.

Many players will be using this event as a springboard to the Masters, and the course is traditionally set up to play as close to Augusta National as possible; with large, glass-quick greens, water hazards aplenty, deep bunkers and tree-lined fairways presenting a stern challenge.

The European Tour heads to Agadir, Morocco this week for the Trophee Hassan II, played at the Golf du Palais Royal and Golf de L’Ocean courses. This is the second staging of the event; last year’s being the inaugural tournament, which was won by Wale’s Rhys Davies.

Almenara Golf Review

Just wanted to let you know that we had a fantastic time at Almenara, transfer from the Airport to the Hotel was excellent with our driver, Keith, who was English and very informative.

The Hotel Almenara was fabulous with the staff being very helpful and friendly. The hotel itself was superb, the distance from the entrance to the Pro-shop and Caddy Master was all of 50 yards. The views across the golf course from the front of the hotel and from the Golf Club restaurant were simply magnificent. Read more
