Callaway Golf Staff Professional Michael Campbell Uses Hawk Eye® Driver to Win His Third Event in Four Weeks Callaway Golf Staff Professional Michael Campbell Uses Hawk Eye® Driver To Win His Third Event In Four Weeks CONTACT(S): Larry Dorman, Mike Galeski, Jamie Taylor (760) 931-1771 CARLSBAD, CA., February 14, 2000 – Callaway Golf (NYSE:ELY) Staff Professional Michael Campbell continued his dominant play down under with a four-stroke victory at the Ericsson Masters in Melbourne, Australia. The 30-year-old New Zealander has now won four times in as many months and is atop the Order of Merit on both the PGA European and PGA Australasian tours. At the Ericsson Masters, Campbell battled blustery winds to finish at 10-under-par 282 for his third Australasian Tour win in the last four weeks. “The last few months have been incredible,” said Campbell, who won the Johnnie Walker Classic last November and the New Zealand Open and Heineken Classic in recent weeks. “I feel at ease with golf. I find golf easy. I feel like I am ready to take on the best in the world.” Campbell used 12 Callaway Golf® clubs in his latest victory, including a Great Big Bertha® Hawk Eye® Titanium Driver, Big Berth® Steelhead™ 3-wood, Big Bertha X-12® Irons and an Odyssey® Dual Force® Putter. Campbell’s stellar play has lifted him to 65th in the World Rankings, making him a likely participant in the upcoming World Match Play Championship. Callaway Golf Staff Professional Kyi Hla Han was also in the news this weekend, as he collected the top two Asian PGA Davidoff Tour awards for his play last year. Han accepted the 1999 Asian PGA Player of the Year Award and the Davidoff Order of Merit title at an awards ceremony in Malaysia. The 39-year-old Myanmar native won the last year’s Volvo China Open and set an Asian PGA Tour record for money won in a single season.

The research presented in this report suggests that nearly 2.000.000 EU citizens in 1996 were enrolled in a distance training course and that a further 600.000 were enrolled in distance education courses at university level. Training in the EU is a complex field on which it is difficult to get accurate data. The effort to get data on distance training is even more challenging. This is a preliminary study, setting out markers in the field. All the data and conclusions in it will benefit from further analysis, clarification and correction. My thanks go to the many researchers in the field who agreed to be interviewed for the purposes of the study. Dozens of other experts made their time and expertise available to answer telephone calls, faxes or emails and my gratitude goes equally to them.

  • Danny Lee Q School
    Lee rounding into form at Q-School • By Sean Martin Golf Week • December 1, 2010 5:17 p.m. • Archive WINTER GARDEN, Fla. – Danny Lee’s first-round 74 at Q-School was hardly impressive, especially for this one-time phenom. But it was important. Over the course of six rounds at Q-School, a player likely will have a bad round. The key is minimizing the damage. Lee, the 2008 U.S. Amateur champion, was 4 over after six holes Wednesday. He made the turn in 40 strokes, half of those swipes coming on Orange County National’s relatively flat greens. He missed three par putts of 8 feet or less in his first six holes. PGA Qualifying School (Rd. 1) The first round of PGA Tour Qualifying School got underway Wednesday at Orange County National in Winter Garden, Fla., as 162 players try to secure a spot on the PGA Tour in 2011. Lee shot 2-under 34 on his second nine. He made a 40-foot birdie putt from the fringe on the par-3 sixth, his 15th hole, and sank a 6-foot birdie putt on his final green. Lee is tied for 97th after shooting 74, but he’s just three shots outside the all-important top 25. The top 25 at week’s end earn PGA Tour cards. Lee’s start Wednesday was hardly what you’d expect from this talented 20-year-old. The same could be said about this season. Lee finished 159th in the European Tour’s Race to Dubai (with just one top-25 in 22 starts), and fell to 455th in the Official World Golf Ranking, about 300 spots lower than the peak he reached as an amateur.

  • A Slice of Tourism: the Nature, Dimensions and Geographies of International Golf Tourism in New Zealand
    A Slice of Tourism: The Nature, Dimensions and Geographies of International Golf Tourism in New Zealand By Chris Gazley Victoria University 2010 A thesis submitted to the Institute of Geography, Victoria University of Wellington in fulfilment of the requirement for the degree of Master of Science i Acknowledgements I would like to thank everyone who helped me during my long year of writing this thesis. Thank you to my supervisor, Richard Willis for his guidance and many hours spent on this; to Sophia for also helping with ideas, proof reading and for motivation when I needed it; to Conway for helping with all things to do with computers and finally to all research participants for their thoughts. This thesis would not have been possible without them. ii Abstract Tourism is one of the largest and fastest growing industries in the world and for New Zealand it is the most important industry along with dairy. Of the 2.5 million tourists who visit New Zealand each year, it is estimated that around 65,000 (3%) of visitors will play at least one game of golf while in the country. New Zealand’s profile as a golfing destination has increased in recent years and now boasts a number of the worlds top ranked courses. This, along with the low cost of playing golf in New Zealand has made it an attractive golfing destination. This thesis aims to gain a greater insight into the nature and dimensions of the golf tourism industry in New Zealand and of those who visit. This research was conducted through a range of interviews with 19 stakeholders in the golf tourism industry, as well as a golfer’s questionnaire to which 44 international visitors responded.
