Professional golfers were on hand to officially open a new state-of-the-art golf facility at The Grove.
The luxury hotel on the edge of Watford has partnered with TaylorMade Golf to launch The Kingdom at The Grove, a high-performance fitting and training destination.
The official opening was attended by PGA stars Tommy Fleetwood and Charley Hull.
Joel Westwell, director of golf at The Grove, said: "The arrival of The Kingdom further strengthens The Grove’s position as one of the UK’s leading golf destinations, combining world-class performance expertise with the luxury resort experience our guests know us for."
Guests gathered for a panel Q&A with Fleetwood and Hull, who shared their insights into the facility and its role in shaping the future of golf at the hotel.
The pair later showcased their skills on the new driving range using their TaylorMade equipment.
The 8.5-acre facility opened to the public in May ahead of the official opening earlier this month.
Tour-level technology includes TrackMan 4, Foresight GC Quad Max, and GEARS motion capture.
It features a 7.4-acre grass driving range, a 4,000-square-metre short-game complex, and an 850-square-metre teeing area.

He added: "Opening The Kingdom at The Grove to the public is a major step in allowing more golfers to experience the same level of insight, precision and care that our tour players trust every week."
