Golf on Tour

A new winner at Augusta

The Masters has a long, rich tradition of making history, and that was only furthered by Hideki Matsuyama becoming the first Japanese golfer to win a Major, finishing Sunday draped in a Green Jacket. A momentous achievement for the golfer and his home nation.

The list of big names to miss the +3 cut, including reigning champ Dustin Johnson and Grand Slam-chasing Rory McIlroy, tells you just how brutal Augusta National played over the first few days. Matsuyama found that brutality at the worst time, watching his lead cut from six with seven to play to a one-shot, nervy victory down the stretch. But he made it, and now his name is etched into the history books.

If you enjoyed the fascinating analysis of players' swings during the coverage, why not book in for a lesson so that we can cast an expert eye over yours?

Beyond the blade

It’s pretty hard to miss the difference between modern-day mallets and traditional blades, but there are aspects of both putter styles that are much less obvious but still really set them apart from models of the past.

PING putters through the years

We can’t all have Tyrrell Hatton's golden touch on the greens, but it’s made much easier with the stability and high MOI (Moment of Inertia) in today’s putters.

They twist less on off-centre strikes for much more forgiveness than years gone by. Whether it’s a must-make six-footer or a long-range two-putt, you can feel the pure roll from modern inserts compared to the way it used to jump off the blade.

Brand new - PING 2021 putters

In its 2021 range, PING uses a dual-durometer face with a softer Pebax front layer for short-range precision, and a firmer back layer for distance control with mid-to-long range putts.

Every model has been engineered using a multi-material construction to deliver new levels of forgiveness and feel. This makes the biggest difference when it comes to finding consistency on the greens.

Look smart, play smart

It’s always important to get off to a good start down the first. A birdie is always nice, that’s for sure! But if we’re feeling restricted or uncomfortable in what we’re wearing, this is rarely the reality. The answer? Wear something you love!

Fresh looks from PING Apparel for 2021

One of the great things about PING’s spring/summer collection is that their polo shirts and mid-layers are so stylish they look great both on and off the course. It doesn’t matter if you’re stepping onto the first tee, walking off the 18th green or celebrating a great round in the clubhouse afterwards, you’ll always love the way you look.

We like that you can choose from a variety of patterns in the polo shirts, whether you prefer the subtle all-over geometric prints or the unique chest designs. As if the look of PING’s new clothes wasn’t fantastic enough on its own, every polo is made with SensorCool technology to keep you fresh, dry and comfortable throughout your round.
