New Pro Am Announced at Murrayfield
This year will see the inaugural AWG StreetWork Charity Pro-Am. The event is in aid of this great charity which helps homeless people in Edinburgh. The event will be held on Friday 12th of September and teams cost £500 including lunch and prizes. Our very own Junior Convenor, Tony Donnelly, who does a great job for the junior section is responsible for initiating this event, so any support would be greatly appreciated.

Jimenez breaks his own record.... AGAIN!!
Miguel Angel Jimenez became the first man over the age of 50 to win on the European Tour with victory in a three-man play-off at the Spanish Open. He is like the 'Usain Bolt' of golf, breaking his own records! If there's ever inspiration, take it from Jimenez, it's never to late to improve your game!
