Sandwell 2025
Sandwell Golf Club provided a true test of skill and nerve for our latest event, with windy fairways, tricky greens, and plenty of drama throughout the day.
Course Highlights
Playing off the white tees added an extra layer of challenge for the field, with the wind whipping across the course and keeping even the most seasoned golfers on their toes. Big hitters had the chance to drive the 11th hole at 290 yards, while two-putts were celebrated as the greens proved particularly tricky.
Weather Conditions
The day started bright, but heavy showers and gusty winds soon tested every player’s patience and precision, adding an unpredictable element to the competition.
