DJ's Masterclass

We had to wait a long time for the 2020 Masters, but Dustin Johnson made sure it was worth it with a stunning 20-under tournament record.

The quiet-mannered American stalked the course with the swagger and calmness of a true champion. His golf was out of this world. DJ avoided the big mistakes (unfortunately, the same couldn't be said for Tiger after a 10 on the par-3 12th) and took birdies as they came. At one stage his lead was cut to just a single stroke on Sunday afternoon, giving the chasing pack and a resurgent Rory a glimmer of hope, only to put his foot down on the accelerator and never look back.

A fully deserved Green Jacket and he'll rightly be the favourite once again come April. DJ's story speaks for itself: four times he has led in a Major going into Sunday but never converted. Well, I guess it was fifth time lucky! And, as Butch Harmon said during the coverage: "he's the closest we've seen to Tiger".

Scratch your golfing itch

After an amazing Masters tournament, we don't blame you for wanting to get out on the course at the next possible opportunity (hopefully, it won't be too much longer). So, why not prepare now for when the time comes by ordering anything you need from your local pro shop?

Thank you for shopping local

We appreciate it's easy to shop online at times like these but we're just as competitive in the pro shop. Whether it's a dozen balls to keep your putting stroke going at home or a new club-crested sweater to put under the tree next month, send us a message below and we'll get back to you.

Not going the extra yard

Golfers have enough hoops to jump through on the course if we want a respectable scorecard at the end of it. With golf balls not travelling as far in cold air and not getting the usual run out off the tee, it feels like the winter is just throwing even more obstacles our way!

Rather than trying to rip the skin off the ball by swinging extra fast - especially when it's into the wind - the better option is always to club up. What we would usually see as say 7-iron range, suddenly becomes 6 or even 5-iron range.

Long irons and hybrids can be very useful at this time of year, especially the latter. Being able to swing the club normally opposed to trying to hit it harder will impart less spin on the ball and give you a better chance of finding the centre of the clubface.

Video of the Week

Given how impressive Dustin Johnson's driving was en-route to picking up his first Green Jacket, this week's video comes from inside TaylorMade's Tour Truck. Enjoy as they talk us through how they build DJ's driver, including some bespoke bits just for the world number one.

We hope you enjoyed the newsletter and have a great weekend.
