OVERVIEW
The newest venue to host the British Masters presents a challenging flat links course with hard and fast fairways and equally fast greens which are protected by deep bunkers. Walton Heath is a course where a sharp tee to green game will be rewarded and playing the ball down is often the play due to the wind. Many players have seen the course in US Open sectional qualifying rounds, so it shouldn’t come as a surprise to see some of our (Euro regulars) familiar names at the top of the leaderboard come Sunday. Rory won’t be here this week, so we’ll have to lean on the top Euros who not only helped Europe claim the Ryder Cup, but also have continued their strong form following the team event – Molinari, Rose, Fleetwood to be specific as they all possess a strong tee to green game and can get hot with their putters.
