2 AMAZING THINGS HAVE HAPPENED IN MY LIFE RECENTLY.
Firstly, the UK PGA have awarded me ‘Fellow Professional’ status, which is a great honor, as well as ‘Specialist Golf Coach’ status to take into 2021.
Secondly, I was asked by the City and Golf Club Am Wienerberg to be Head Pro, which I gladly agreed to.
On a personal note:
We all know that golf is considered a safe sport while also being a fun way to stay fit and healthy. That's why golf is booming again, with the number of golfers in Europe increasing from 7.9 million to 10.6 million in recent years, a trend that started before COVID*.
This is a very exciting time to be a golf pro and I look forward to seeing some of you in 2022.
