Last weekend the US Women’s Open held at Southern Pines, North Carolina saw Australian Minjee Lee take home not only the The Harton S. Semple Trophy but claiming the winner’s cheque of $1.8 million dollars. It was the first time ever, the top three finishers at the U.S. Women’s Open all received at least $685,000.

The US PGA Championship will be commencing next week at the Southern Hills Championship Course in Tulsa, USA. This fine course boasts many years of golf history with the first men’s major championship taking place there in 1958, when it hosted the U.S Open. Since then, it has hosted an additional 6 Major Championships with Tiger Woods winning the last event The Southern Hills hosted, which was the PGA Championship in 2007.

As the days get colder and the nights draw in, for many golfers this is the time to pack away the clubs, not to be seen again until the following year. However this doesn't have to be the case, winter golf can be the most rewarding and enjoyable.
