Had a fascinating day at the @englandcricket High Performance Centre in Loughborough where England have some state-of-the-art pitches to help them train through the winter. Crucially, it might just help them win on fast, bouncy pitches around the world... #bbccricket

I've said it before and I'll say it again... Whatever @pingtour is putting in their secret sauce is working. Point-blank period, there's no debate. In 2024 alone, they had the best-performing Driver, Hybrid, Utility Iron AND Wedge. Am I saying your whole bag should be PING? No. Am I saying they're figuring it out at an impressive rate? Yes.

We're currently looking at options for hosting the next World Scientific Congress of Golf in 2026 or 2027. We have a couple of interested parties, but there is still time to let us know if you are interested to host a future congress. See attached. #GolfScience
