Practicing your swing in the midst of any icy blizzard is for the seriously committed/insane. If you’re still keen to play at Pebble Beach in January when it's 0°C outside, you’re best bet is avoiding the plane ticket and doing it from your living room.

Indoor golf simulators will now allow you to play the finest courses in the world in 4K resolution, and no longer require you to have a living room the size of P Diddy’s to have one fitted. Foresight Sports’ simulators come with a clever GC2 smart-camera system which measures movement of the ball at launch recording ball speed, spin, direction and launch angle – all while you’re standing there in your slippers with the heating on.

From £5,995. For more info, visit foresightsports.com
