Rising golf star comes to Morley Hayes

Ladies European Tour golfer and Solheim Cup team member Melissa Reid visited Derbyshire golf complex, Morley Hayes to meet their lady golfers and launch a new range of ladies golf wear.

The number of lady golfers hitting the greens at Morley Hayes has hit an all-time high, so the club has responded by introducing a new ladies section in its golf shop, which was officially opened by Melissa, who is a rising star on the ladies golf circuit.

Derbyshire-born Melissa started playing golf at the age of 11 and turned professional at the end of the 2007 season after a hugely successful amateur career. She is now a touring professional and is widely regarded as one of the rising stars on the Ladies tour.

Morley Hayes, which has two golf courses, has experienced a significant increase in the number of females using its golfing facilities since it launched its dedicated ladies golf breaks earlier this year.

Commenting on the launch of the new ladies clothing section, Andrew Allsop, managing director at Morley Hayes, said:

"I am delighted that Melissa took time out of her busy schedule to attend the official launch of our new range of Adidas golf wear."

"Since we launched our ladies golf breaks, Morley Hayes has grown in popularity with lady golfers, who travel to us from across the UK. It was fantastic that Melissa was able to join us for the launch event and meet our lady golfers and academy golfers."

Melissa isn't the only big name golfer to visit Morley Hayes; back in the summer, world number two Lee Westwood made a flying visit to meet budding young golfers taking part in the Lee Westwood Golf Academy.
