Is Golf the Ultimate Game for Self-Isolation?

Posted on March 24, 2020March 24, 2020by The Sub Par Golfer

On the day the UK has announced their latest lockdown measures and while France is on day 8 of lockdown, I can’t help but daydream of the possibility of our golf course opening again. While the chances of a lockdown ending anytime soon seem to be dwindling day by day (some are predicting the lockdown […]

Gorgeous Garlenda Golf

Posted on January 3, 2019October 14, 2019by The Sub Par Golfer

We’d played Garlenda once before on our last trip to Finale about two years ago. We had always thought the one thing missing from Finale was a golf course. As it turns out there is one half an hour away, and a stunning one at that. Even better, they allow dogs on the course (“as long […]

Frost to Farinata

Posted on December 30, 2018January 9, 2019by The Sub Par Golfer

The day we left Chamonix was cold. We’d spent the night in the camper van as our chalet was so clean we felt it would be a shame to sleep in it. We’re renting it out to a local company for the season and it was in tip top shape, cleanest I’ve ever seen it […]

Down Down and Away

Posted on December 7, 2018January 9, 2019by The Sub Par Golfer

This winter, Phil and I are escaping the icy grip of winter and heading south for a change. For five months. We’ve got our camper van, our clubs and our dog Pepper and we’re excited to finally get to golf throughout the entire winter. Maybe in 2019, with constant play throughout the year, I’ll finally […]

Finding Women’s Golf Clothes That Don’t Suck

Posted on August 24, 2018August 24, 2018by The Sub Par Golfer

As a lady golfer, I spend a lot of time on the golf course and much of that time, not naked. So whenever I’m window-shopping for clothes, I’m always thinking, “Can I wear this on the golf course?” because that’s where I spend most of my time out of the house, not naked. I always […]

Golf in the Algarve

Posted on January 11, 2018by The Sub Par Golfer

We’d heard so much about golf in Portugal. So did it live up to the hype? We left Chamonix at an unholy 3am on Dec 5th. It was -9°C (15°F) and the idea that we would soon be outside in a t-shirt seemed too good to be true. We touched down, got our car and […]

New LPGA Dress Code Is A Joke

Posted on July 19, 2017July 19, 2017by The Sub Par Golfer

A new policy will take effect this weekend on the LPGA, a crackdown on “plunging necklines” (how plungy?) and exposed “bottom areas” (how bottomy?). Last September I wrote a blog post about this very topic, so my feelings are pretty clear. At the time I believed we as golfers were moving into more progressive territory […]

How to Keep Focused on Your Game

Posted on May 31, 2017May 31, 2017by The Sub Par Golfer

It’s not always easy to keep focus during golf, especially when your golf buddies are hell-bent on jazz-handing their way into your consciousness. When you’re trying to hit the perfect shot or sink that clutch putt, a thoughtless cough, sneeze or muted shuffling through one’s bag could send you into a tailspin of frustration. Don’t […]

New Golf Rules My Arse

Posted on March 24, 2017March 25, 2017by The Sub Par Golfer

In case you haven’t already heard, the R&A and USGA have come up with a list of proposed rule changes to the game of golf. Now, I’ve spent a lot of my available mental memory storing these rules and regs (to the detriment of remembering names of people I’ve known for less than three years). […]

Welcome


Hello, I'm Michelle. I'm a 7 handicapper and I've been golfing for as long as I can remember. Despite golf's tendency to frustrate and humiliate me, I've stuck with the ridiculous and satisfying sport. I'll be talking golf and talking crap, so stick around.
