Premium apparel brand Oscar Jacobson’s Autumn/Winter apparel range offers a sophisticated mix of contemporary performance, functionality and traditional styling.

The colour palette for the coming season will appeal to golfers of all ages with a mix of Navy, Graphite, Electric Blue, China Blue, and Lunar Grey being used across the collection. As you would expect for the season, there is an emphasis on midlayers, knitwear, jackets and gilets, while the extensive accessories range includes knitted hats in several styles, caps, along with belts, an umbrella, and socks designed to co-ordinate with the main collection.

Dayne hoodie, Hodgson gilet and Lexinton midlayer

New for 2022 is a lightweight padded fabric used across a number of items including the HARRINGTON (£129.99), a stylish and ultra-versatile full zip, thermal hybrid jacket.  Constructed using the finest lightweight fabric, the padded body offers warmth whilst still maintaining a lightweight feel. The jacket also provides exceptional wind and shower protection.  Articulated stretch side panels and sleeves ensure a comfortable fit and an enhanced range of motion, while an extended high collar provides additional wind protection.

LAGUNA Quarter Zip Jacket

The HODGSON gilet (£109.99) uses the same padded construction as the HARRINGTON.  This provides the same protection from light wind and rain, but the gilet is a very desirable cross-over garment as the style is reminiscent of the popular everyday fashion look.  Whether you choose to wear this on course, off course, or both its excellent warmth and thermal regulation properties will be more than welcome on colder days.

The DARWIN Quarter Zip Neck Top (£79.99) is one of several midlayer styles in the range. It blends contemporary styling with an exclusively designed jersey stretch fabric that delivers four way stretch, exceptional freedom of movement and breathability.  The tipped quarter zip neck, which holds the water-resistant zipper, and features such as the sleeve and waist binding for secured fit all demonstrate the brand’s commitment to detail, quality and performance.

The LAGUNA Quarter Zip Jacket (£109.99) is extremely lightweight, while being fully water and wind resistant, enabling you to play in all weather conditions. Colour block detailing and front chest branding complete the look.

Fans of the hoodie, will like the DAYNE (£109.99), a half-zip pullover hoodie made from Marl fleece that features elasticated an hem and cuffs, and a concealed kangaroo pouch pocket. The 3-panel tonal hood has been designed to create less distraction during play.

Desmond slim-fit trousers are water repellent

OJ’s winter apparel range also features a couple of waterproof trouser options, including DOUGLAS (£79.99) and DESMOND (£89.99). The former is a water-repellent coated trouser that beads water away from the fabric to keep your legs dry in all weathers. A front pocket design, twin back scorecard pockets with flaps and a tailored, slim silhouette, complete the look.

The Desmond is a slim fit, stylish flat front golf trouser made from a premium technical polyester and elastane fabric. Combining exceptional freedom of movement, elevated levels of breathable, thermal insulation and comfort, this is the perfect choice for winter golf. Featuring two front slash pockets, two rear welt pockets and an additional back pocket flap to deliver supreme playability.

]]> High drama at La Manga as LET Q School wraps up the season https://golfingagency.com/high-drama-at-la-manga-as-let-q-school-wraps-up-the-season/ Thu, 22 Dec 2022 12:08:12 +0000 https://golfingagency.com/high-drama-at-la-manga-as-let-q-school-wraps-up-the-season/

German duo Polly Mack and Alexandra Försterling tied for the top at the Ladies European Tour’s Qualifying School at La Manga Club in Spain, which saw 24 players earn category 12 playing rights on Europe’s top tour for women golfers for the 2023 season.

Försterling, who led after round four, has got to know La Manga Club pretty well after progressing through the European Pre-Qualifier held at the same venue last week. The 23-year-old produced a round of level par on the South Course with three birdies and three bogeys to secure LET playing rights for 2023 with a 15 under par total.

She explained: “I feel really good! I’m a little annoyed about 18, where I missed a short putt to win outright, but that’s how it is some times. All in all, if someone would have told me before that I would have finished here, I wouldn’t have believed them. It’s really nice. It means a lot to get my LET card. I’m extremely excited for next season and I can’t wait to get started!”

A final round of 71 saw Mack draw alongside her compatriot, after she rolled in four birdies and two bogeys in Spain. It has been a busy end to the year for the 23-year-old, who secured both her LPGA Tour and Ladies European Tour cards for 2023 in December.

“It feels great,” said Mack. “These last couple of week couldn’t have turned out any better and I’m honestly just really really happy with this outcome and going into the off-season with this feeling is really nice. It means a lot to get the LET status. I am German and it’s nice to have both and have the options and more opportunities. I’m really looking forward to 2023, I think it’s going to be exciting.”

All 24 qualifiers from Q School can look forward to more competitive outings on the LET next season

French amateur Nastasia Nadaud rounded off her excellent week with a 71 on the final day to finish in third, with Slovenia’s Ana Belac ended the tournament in fourth place after firing the a low round of the day 67, which included an eagle on 18, to be finish on 13-under.

Surrey’s Annabel Dimmock earned a full LET card for next season after finishing tied 10th at La Manga

Thailand’s Trichat Cheenglab was fifth on 11-under, while Switzerland’s Albane Valenzuela finished in a share of sixth place alongside Austria’s Emma Spitz with Australia’s Gabriela Ruffels in outright eighth place. Rounding out the top 10 on six-under-par were Australia’s Kirsten Rudgeley and England’s Annabel Dimmock, with Germany’s Sophie Hausmann and Sweden’s Emma Nilsson in T11.

Czechia’s Tereza Melecka, who also carded a 67 (-6) on the final day, ended T13 with Norway’s Maiken Bing Paulsen plus Swiss amateur Tiffany Arafi and Danish amateur Amalie Leth-Nissen.

Spain’s Paz Marfa Sans finished in a share of 17th  on three-under alongside Sweden’s Linnea Johansson, Germany’s Aline Krauter, Norway’s Madelene Stavnar, Wales’ Lee-Anne Bramwell, Scotland’s Louise Duncan, Japan’s Yuri Onishi and Italy’s Alessandra Fanali.

Should they wish to accept and take up LET membership, a total of 24 players secured Category 12 membership for 2023 while 28 players clinched Category 16 membership.
