    & off the same tees as the Men... There's good hitting down in Arklow off the Blues... I can only assume they were all playing off the tips, 64 is some pretty impressive shooting.

    Are you sure it was off the same tees? Some achievement either way!

    She didn't play off the same tees.

    She didn't play off the same tees.

    “I'm absolutely thrilled to win the tournament, I can't believe it,” said Kavanagh, who played off the same tees as the men. "I've been pleased with my form of late and finished tied for seventh at the recent K Club Pro-am.

    Pretty sure she did.......why do you think she didn't?

    It was the same tees alright. Let's be honest, if it wasn't it wouldn't be such an achievement.

    Arklow is a tough test off the Blues.

    I think the confusion came from when Shane Lowry tweeted Brian Keogh (the writer of the article above) asking if it was off the same tees and he replied "Normally 10-14% forward but still impressive"

    But since... Arklow Golf Club replied and confirmed that it was indeed from the same tees.

    I know she didn't. I was there.

    Some achievement, there wasn't a pro to be seen at the Spawell earlier.
    Might pop in again tomorrow to see how the heads are.

    She seems like an excellent teacher to boot.

    Well, thats all you needed to say in your original post, I was merely going by the Article.
    Either way, Still a fantastic win.

    Well did Arklow get it wrong when they tweeted this...?

    Arklow Golf Links @ArklowGolfLinks
    "@shanelowrygolf @IrishGolfDesk Same tees Shane."

    She would play a course that is roughly 13% shorter then the men. She may have played a couple of holes where her tees were in the same position as the men. But not all tees were.

    Arklow's tweet is incorrect.

    This is not in anyway belittling Hazel's achievement. It was a great win.

    I've been considering going to her myself.
    Half because I've been impressed by her methods and the other half... Well, I've nestled up in the bay beside where she gives lessons one to many times, time to start paying her :)

    What a finish, seriously impressive.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,036 ✭✭✭Loire


    Absolutely delighted. I had a round of lessons with Hazel about 5 or 6 years ago and still go back to those notes when playing badly. She was really nice to deal with and hope she enjoys this!!
