The Big Vote. We have a winner.
Mar 21 2010 Posted in Customer comment, GoKart News by GoKartWell despite his other rather ungentlemanly question involving the subject of women playing golf versus ironing, Vin (I’m not really a male chauvinist) Hollyoake wins our competition to select the next Big Vote question. You’ll see it on the left <
We had some crackers. Amongst the honourable mentions were Iwan Jones (which isn’t really surprising as he sent in about a dozen entries. Does that man never sleep?) with his rather random -

Wish you were here?
Mar 20 2010 Posted in Customer comment by GoKartA customer sent us this photo of the view from his home in Malaysia. We think it’s rather cruel really, what with the winter we’ve had. Not to worry, the clocks change next weekend and there’ll soon be time for a nippy nine after work…
With thanks to Tony K. We can have our suitcases packed very quickly you know.

The British are Coming
It’s a phrase that Colin Welland famously used in 1981 when he picked up the Oscar for best original screenplay for the movie Chariots of Fire. It is tempting to repeat it here in relation to golf but it is already redundant because the British (or, more accurately, the Europeans) are already here, and dominating things in a way that we couldn’t imagine, even a relatively short time ago. We have become so used to Americans (at least in the men’s game) holding sway over the rest of the world, in effect since the 1930s, that it seemed the natural order of things but Ian Poulter’s win at the WGC Accenture Matchplay Championship (over another Englishman, Paul Casey in the final) has underlined just how radically things have changed.
