Lucky number 17 for Reavie

If Chez Reavie plays the lottery this week then we recommend one of his picks is 17.

The American claimed the Travelers Championship by four shots with a total 17-under-par but despite shooting a joint back-nine record at TPC River Highlands on Saturday with a 7-under 28, a charging Keegan Bradley had his lead down to just one with three to play come Sunday.

Lucky number 17 came to the rescue though as Bradley shot a double bogey at the par 4 seventeenth whilst Reavie sunk a birdie at the same hole to stretch the lead to four where it stayed.

It was Chez Reavie’s second PGA Tour win and first since claiming the Canadian Open in 2008 – a tournament he won with a total score of (yep you guessed it) 17-under par.

Spooky.

11 up as Green takes major glory

Australian Hannah Green took a wire to wire victory at the Women's PGA Championship thus creating a truly remarkable statistic – The last eleven women’s major tournaments have seen eleven different winners.
If that wasn’t enough, the last four winners have all been aged 23 or under!

Coming into the tournament after a missed cut in her prior event, few gave Green a second glance until she stormed to the top of the leaderboard with a 4-under 68 on day one.

There she stayed despite a wobble through the middle section on Sunday with bogies at 9, 11, and 12 to hold off defending champion Sung-Hyun Park by a single shot on 9-under.

England’s Melissa Reid fired in a total six-under par to finish in a tie for 3rd and record her best major finish to date.

Walking on sunshine

Is there a better time than summer to be out playing golf? Silly question, really. So, now you’ve got your cap on and you’re lathered in sun lotion, it’s time to make sure the most important part of your body (arguably) is protected: your eyes.

Oakley Mercenary sunglasses

UV protection

You don’t need us to tell you that staring straight at the sun is not the smartest idea, but these sunglasses come with UV protection to keep those harmful rays at bay.

Enhanced vision

The best thing about the Mercenary is that it comes with Oakley's Dark Prizm lenses, which help to improve colour, contrast and detail for maximum clarity on the course.

Stylish look

Last but by no means least, these sunnies are incredibly stylish with a modern frame and larger lens shape, meaning you'll happily wear them all day long.

Looking for something else?

If the Mercenary doesn't tickle your fancy then not to worry, we have a huge collection of Oakley sunglasses available online to get delivered to store for you to pick up at your convenience - simply click on the button below to browse the range.

Lost your groove?

Much like the tyres on your car, there comes a time when the grooves on your wedges have worn away so much that they need replacing. This process occurs slowly over time and is something that you might not notice at first glance, but when the wear becomes apparent it can have serious consequences on your game.

Fresh vs worn grooves

It might seem a little extreme, but the graphic above illustrates the impact worn grooves can have on shots into greens - a lower ball flight that rolls out farther compared to a wedge with fresh grooves.

Yes, you might be able to adapt by pitching the ball shorter and letting it roll out, but when you don't have much green to work with or are playing a delicate shot worn grooves will be of no use.

What do we suggest?

If dirt, grit and water have visibly harmed your wedge face, it’s time to get your groove back with a new wedge set-up.

One model that we'd certainly recommend trying is TaylorMade's Milled Grind Hi-Toe wedge. Utilising advanced milling techniques, these wedges boast an improved groove configuration that extends all the way to the toe for high-spin performance.

TaylorMade wedges are trusted by some of the world's best golfers, including Rory and DJ, so you can guarantee they'll add performance to your game.
