The prestigious TGI Golf Partner of the Year award has returned to the Isle of Wight as Shanklin & Sandown PGA Professional Peter Hammond clinched the award at a special ceremony. Leading figures from the golf industry attended the event where both PGA Professionals and suppliers are recognised for their achievements over the year.

Whacking a ball around with a golf bat. One of the most tedious and mundane ‘sports’ ever. It should be banned.
