Representatives for Tiger Woods have reportedly sent a cease and desist notice to a new party golf course in Wales over its name. Amateur golfer Matthew Wharton has admitted that he was shocked to receive the letter after launching his PuttStroke venue.

 

The name of the premium mini golf course bears a striking resemblance to Woods’s business PopStroke. Woods is a co-owner of the PopStroke business that operates several mini golf courses in the US.

According to the Daily Post, JA Kemp, a leading patent and trademark company in London representing Woods, have contacted Wharton over concerns that fans may be misled by the similarity between the names of the two businesses.

Speaking about his proposals last month, Wharton said: “I’m taking inspiration from several of the mini golf courses designed by Tiger Woods and his team. I’m calling it Puttstroke but I may have to think again if I get a warning letter from Tiger.”

But Wharton now faces a name change and will put the decision in the hands of the public after the ‘cease and desist’ letter. His project, which features an illuminated course, aims to create a family-oriented mix of golfing fun and al fresco dining.

“I was a bit shocked to receive the letter,” Wharton said in a separate interview.

“It arrived pretty soon after I announced the venture. I was surprised it had caught Tiger’s eye so quickly, but I suppose in a way that’s quite a compliment – maybe it shows he’s worried about the competition!

“I’m happy to go along with the request and look for a new name. I’ve decided to seek inspiration from the public – to see if they can suggest something suitable. I’d be delighted to hear ideas for the new name so long as it’s not Putty McPuttFace or something.

“We live in a Welsh village and we’re trying to promote the Welsh language, so it would be good to hear suggestions for names that would translate well and put Welsh first.”

Woods endured a torrid ending to the Masters, finishing last from those who made the cut at Augusta last week. The 48-year-old carded a five-over 77 on Sunday in his 100th round, having posted rounds of 73, 72 and 82 earlier in the

It was the most memorable moment of my career.”  Brought up in China’s southern Guangdong province, neighbouring Hong Kong, an 18-year-old Feng became the first Chinese player to earn an LPGA tour card in 2007.  The easy-going Feng went on to be the first Chinese player, man or woman, to win a major and lifted 10 LPGA titles during her 14 active years on the tour.  In 2017, Feng became the only Chinese golfer to date to reach the world No 1 ranking.  During a supremely consistent career, Feng registered 18 top-10 finishes in majors, two of them in 2021 even as she was winding down her playing commitments.
