Another Hypegolf Invitational In the Books 🫡

[Hypegolf] June 20, 2024 Weekly Digest ️⛳ What Went Down at the Hypegolf Invitational TLDR: Birdies and bogeys, toasts and smiles, the Hypegolf Invitational was a hit with the LA golf community once again. Check out our article for the full recap. Why It Matters: The Hypegolf community can at times feel as if it exists only online where an-ever shifting algorithm dictates whose content gets pushed. But in truth, the strength of our community is forged in real life and on real golf courses where good and bad shots are cheered and laughed at all the same. The Hypegolf Invitational reminds us this year-after-year.⁠Read the full article [here](. --------------------------------------------------------------- ️🧱 The FootJoy Red Clay Premiere Series Honors the US Open TLDR: Ever since the beginning of 2023, FootJoy‘s Wilcox silhouette, a member of the Premiere Series, has been the brand’s go-to for its NRG program. The first to arrive was the Metalwood Studio collab with its faux snakeskin overlay, and the brand has went back to the well for this year's US Open golf shoe: the Red Clay Premiere Series.⁠Why It Matters: The outsoles of FootJoy's US Open shoe match the red clay of Pinehurst and the surrounding North Carolina Sandhills. The basket weave saddle section, on the other hand, adds an element of old time craftsmanship. Those lucky enough to get a pair in-hand will also notice other premium details like the metal eyelets, pebble leather upper and soft leather lining. The pair is now available via FootJoy's website for $240 USD.⁠Read the full article [here](. --------------------------------------------------------------- 🥵 The MANORS Summer Capsule Is Ready for Caribbean Heat TLDR: UK-based performance apparel golf brand MANORS traveled to Pointy Hardy Golf Club at Cabot Saint Lucia to shoot the lookbook for its Summer 2024 Capsule, bringing along Victor Cruz and Josh Denzel.⁠The brand added two new styles to its core range of apparel for the 2024 summer golf season.⁠Why It Matters: The first key addition are the Greenskeeper Shorts, essentially a shorter version of the brand’s best-selling Greenskeeper Trousers.⁠The GOAT Pique Polo is another focus, a more premium entry compared to MANORS core technical gear. You can view the full collection on MANORS’ website now, and if you’re curious, head over to the brand’s Instagram to see how Cruz and Denzel fared on Cabot’s sun-soaked fairways.⁠⁠Read the full article [here](. --------------------------------------------------------------- 👂 Sight and Sounds at Tobacco Road Golf Club TLDR: The area surrounding Pinehurst, where the US Open is being held this week, is famous for having an unrivaled lineup of courses within a few hours of each other. And among those, Tobacco Road Golf Club is one of the most universally liked. Hypegolf is on a road trip to the US Open with the tournament's presenting sponsor Lexus this week, and we got a chance to experience the challenge for ourselves.⁠Why It Matters: The agricultural theme runs strong at Tobacco Road Golf Club, nodding to the history of farming in the area. Tee markers are shaped like farm tools, while various pieces of retired equipment are placed throughout the course to add character. A few pro tips: invest in a yardage book and give the chicken salad sandwich a try when you're making the turn.⁠Check it out [here](. --------------------------------------------------------------- 🤌 Callaway Releases a Paradym Mini Driver TLDR: Just two days before the start of the US Open Callaway surprised a lot of people by releasing a mini version of the Paradym AI Smoke driver. The club comes in 11.5 or 13.5 degrees, profiling as a strong 3 wood or a more versatile driver.⁠Why It Matters: While many comments on Instagram are from people calling out Callaway for "TaylorMade Imitation," the Ti 340 now joins a lane not just occupied by TaylorMade but Titleist as well. As mini drivers become more and more popular with consumers, it's not to wonder golf's governing bodies are making plans to reign in the size of standard driver heads. It would certainly be another way to stop distance from being the be-all end-all.⁠Check it out [here](. --------------------------------------------------------------- [Hypebeast] [Download the Hypebeast App]( On iOS & Android Devices [hypegolf instagram]( --------------------------------------------------------------- [Manage Subscriptions]( Policy]( You are subscribed to Hypebeast’s marketing emails with the address: {EMAIL} Contact subscription@hypebeast.com for assistance on any enquiries. 2024 Hypebeast Limited.
