Golf jumpers may be a wise buy during the recent cold snap in the UK.

Published: 06 January 2010

A number of golf courses in Scotland have been forced to close after the UK's cold weather snap saw heavy snow storms and freezing conditions make them too dangerous to play on.

According to the Scotsman, golf clubs in East Lothian, including the Glen in North Berwick and the Gullane, have been shut since the middle of December.

Office manager at the Glen Rita Wilson told the source that she has not seen such bad weather since she started working at the course 16 years ago.

Once courses are back open, golfers could consider investing in some warm items of golf clothing - such as argyle golf jumpers - to ensure they are kept cosy in the chill and that cold temperatures do not impact their game.

Golf gloves could also prove a wise buy and could help amateur gamers improve their game by ensuring they have the correct grip when teeing off.
