Nerveless Willett Claims Dramatic Win In DubaiThe new XR 16 Driver is officially a winner on Tour after Danny Willett used it to close out victory yesterday at the Omega Dubai Desert Classic. In just his second week with the new XR 16 Driver (and Fairway Woods) in the bag, Willett beat a World Class field and sealed the win with a clutch putt on the 72nd hole for his fourth career win.
It's the second straight European Tour win for #TeamCallaway after Branden Grace defended his title in Qatar last week and our third in the last four weeks.

Club and Shoe cleaning
With the wet winter weather hitting us hard at the moment, your golfing equipment needs to be looked after. After recent feedback we have decided to introduce a new Club and Shoe cleaning service to our members. By keeping your shoes and clubs clean you will prolong the life span of the product and reduce mess in the car.
- Club cleaning + Grips and shafts - £5
- Shoes + Polish - £5
Members equipment can be collected and returned to their locker.
Professional's Team Challenge
This coming year, the pro shop will be offering a pro's challenge. The challenge will involve a team of three members with one of our professionals. It will be a stableford of best two scores out of four with the cost of £25 per player.
If you win the challenge and have the best score out of all of the teams to compete, you will win a golf trip away. The destination will depend on how many entries we have.
It would be great to get the chance to play with our members so please come in and chat to us and we'll have a game!
The big question is… which Verulam Pro will best suit your team?
Who will it be?
Stephen Topping - The long hitting monster who can drive many of the par 4's
Laurence Allen - Highly competitive and very consistent, great team player
Joel Saunders - With over 6000 rounds of golf at Verulam, will course knowledge be key?
Glen Portelli - Likes the warm weather, especially when the putter gets hot
Have a great week and hopefully the course will open up for this weekend.
Regards,
Joel, Glen, Laurence and Stephen
