Lesson learned: playing in the wind
I love watching PGA Tour in Hawaii. Even though technically the season started a few months ago, I only now realized it.
Be that as it may, another reason I love watching golfers play in Hawaii is that I can learn a lot from what I’ve seen – not just for my own game, but as a teacher helping others.

However, modern Greeks are not upset and succeed in Golf no less than his ancestors.
Upscale landscaped fields are near Athens, the Islands, the Peloponnese. Their construction took place at the latest stage in the history of Greece, so compliance with the highest standards is not in doubt. For example, the project of the Golf course Dunes Course, located in Costa Navarino, belongs to Bernhard Langer-captain of the team at the Ryder Cup, two-time champion of the tournament US Masters.
