Ryder Cup hero David Howell is just one of the celebrities of sport, stage and screen who will be visiting the London Golf Show when it returns to ExCeL on April 26-29, 2007.

The 31-year-old helped contribute 2½ points to the overall winning total at The K Club, as he added to his already burgeoning reputation on the world stage.

Now, he sits proudly ranked 16 in the world and the chance to meet him at the London Golf Show will be a rare opportunity to see him off a golf course, so busy is his normal schedule.

Howell is one of the Tour pros contracted to Cleveland Golf and the US manufacturer has confirmed its presence at the 2007 London Golf Show, where it will showcase its latest ranges as used by the likes of Howell and Vijay Singh.

Other manufacturers who have confirmed include Nike, PING and Wilson – and more are expected to follow suit.

Howell said: “I’m delighted my schedule allows me to attend this year’s London Golf Show. I’ve heard a lot about the previous two events and I’m looking forward to seeing it all for myself.”

The London Golf Show’s marketing director, Andy Barwell, said: “David Howell is a torchbearer not just for British golf at the moment but also for the European Tour. He’s also a genuinely nice guy which means he’s doubly welcome at the show.

“In an ideal world David will win the Masters in the first week of April and we will be able to welcome a Major winner on to the stage.”

The London Golf Show 2007 returns to ExCeL from April 26-29 with Europe’s largest golf retail store courtesy of the UK’s no1 retailer, american golf; a 30-bay driving range; the chance to go head-to-head on the chipping green with celebrities; the opportunity to sink a 100ft putt; the iconic floating green; myriad game-improvement gadgets; a fashion show; plus a much bigger area dedicated to junior golf with free coaching, fun and games and prizes.

What’s more, two juniors go free with every paying adult…
