Just what golf's been looking for

Having seen the indisputable impact that Twenty20 has had on growing the game of cricket, golf has been looking for its equivalent for a little while now; a shorter, fun and more attractive form of the game which will help drive interest and participation amongst a new generation.

This is where GolfSixes comes in. Entrance music, pyrotechnics, nearest the pin, longest drive, player-fan interaction and a shot clock were all part of the spectacle at the inaugural event last weekend, won by the youthful Denmark team. Yes there were things which will be improved upon moving forward but amid everything, GolfSixes proved that an exciting game of golf can be played over six holes and in under 60 minutes.

It's important to stress that - regardless of whether you enjoyed the weekend's play or not - GolfSixes is not designed to replace traditional golf as we know it, but to simply serve as a pathway to get more people playing the game we love.

Let us know what you made of it here.


 

Bleadon Cup

The Bleadon Cup was won by the Blue Team, beating the Red Team 10.5 to 8.5. 

Drew Huskisson was the Blue captain and Simon Childs was the Red. The event was increased by 10 players this year and hopefully there will be even more next year.
