Winter is coming and the problem with junior sport

From temporary greens to rules that can catch you out, winter golf brings many challenges – and it will be upon us. again before we know it.

This week, Tom Irwin and Steve Carroll get into the realities of keeping your game going through the colder months. Can you be bothered if you’re not on proper greens? Should fairway mats be anywhere near your club? Should we just stick to the driving range instead?

They also ask whether junior golf is becoming too focused on producing elite players at the expense of enjoying the sport. Should we measure success by how many youngsters are still playing as adults, rather than how many future scratch golfers are produced?
