Ryo Ishikawa

Ryo Ishikawa A work in progress...

Regularly mentioned in the same sentence as Rory McIlroy and Rickie Fowler in the ‘youth movement’ sweeping world golf over the past few years, Japan’s Ryo Ishikawa would most likely admit that at this point in time he has not exactly set the world on fire in comparison. Not yet anyway. However, the ‘Bashful Prince’ as he is known to an adoring public at home is starting to come out of his shell internationally. It’s easy to forget that Ishikawa is so young. He’s still only 23 years old, several years younger than both Fowler, and like all Japanese players before him, has to contend with enormous hurdles in terms of language barriers, culture and environment to try to compete on a level playing field with his peers. A modest record in the four Majors (9 missed cuts in 14 starts through...

José Maria Olazábal 2012 Q&A from the AIR Magazine vaults

European Ryder Cup captain José Maria Olazábal has started the year in style, kicking off his own season with a strong showing in South Africa and revealing that he would announce his two captain’s picks on August 27, the Monday following the Johnnie Walker Championship at the Gleneagles Hotel in Perthshire, Scotland.

The two players he chooses will complete the 12-man European Ryder Cup team, which will travel to Medinah Country Club in Chicago to defend the trophy against the United States from September 28th to 30th. This will avoid the delicate situation that occurred in 2010, when captain Colin Montgomery had to make his picks before players had completed their tournaments in the United States. “We have made the decision regarding that, and the an- nouncement is going to...

Momoko Ueda 2009 Q&A from the AIR Magazine vaults

Her 2007 successes—being the youngest Japanese golfer to top the JLPGA money list and winning the Mizuno Classic, which qualified her for the LPGA tour—helped her break out onto the international scene. She went on to represent Japan in the Golf World Cup and played at St. Andrews, all in the same year.

How is Momoko doing today? Although she did not have the impact of fellow countrywoman Ai Miyazato in her rookie season on the LPGA tour, Ueda is renowned for her focus, drive and ambition. We caught up with her between tournaments in the USA.

What happens if your ball strikes another players ball? Golfing Rules, Seriously!

On the course this past weekend, I putt from just off the green and my ball struck my playing partners ball, knocking it closer to the hole.

After a quick giggle, we began to discuss the ruling, 'I'll play from there and its a one-shot penalty for you' my friend said. 'I was off the green' I said, 'Doesn't matter' he said. Right, I said. 'Hang on, and I'll consult the rule book'.

Luckily, I had The R&A's Rules of Golf on my phone (Well worth a download and it's FREE)

Without quoting the book verbatim, there are basically three scenarios which you should be mindful of:

On the Fairway If your ball strikes a fellow players ball on the fairway by accident, both players will play from where their balls lie. There will be no penalty...

Up Your Golf Game With an Apple Watch More than an accessory!

Mark your score after that awesome birdie, check the yardage via GPS, decide strategy on the next hole. But first, a quick press of the digital crown to have Siri remind you to call your wife when you get back to the clubhouse. Wait,… what? Yep! All of that was just done on your Apple Watch. It's certainly not your father’s Rolex anymore when it comes to golfing and the Apple Watch.

Just like how the iPhone and other smartphones revolutionized how we communicate and use technology 10 years ago, the new Apple Watch has changed how golfers approach the game today, and possibly changed the game itself. And, with onboard GPS, increased water protection and other performance enhancements Apple Watch Series 2 has the potential to make an even bigger impact. It comes as no surprise...
