6 years as a PGA Professional
I turned professional with a handicap of +5 and played on the Ladies European and Asian Tours for a number of years, before having to retire in 2010 due to injury. Since that time, I have successfully run and managed The Fame Golf Academy which includes individual and group coaching for all levels and abilities. I am extremely passionate about coaching and getting more people involved in the golf game, and I work with ladies, men and juniors to help them improve. My work with Derbyshire Golf as a community golf coach continues to give me a fantastic opportunity to do this. As a AA PGA professional and former tour player, I feel very privileged to be able to give something back to the game of golf. I have been involved in sport for 30 years and I have experienced what it is like first hand to start at grassroots level and go through the various stages of development and coaching. I have skills in both the mental and physical attributes of golf, with an excellent and current understanding of the golf swing. I believe in a player centred approach to coaching, creating a fun and safe learning environment, enhancing player ownership, self-belief and improving self-awareness of movement. Every golfer is unique....their swing, body type, tendencies and learning style so I do not believe that there is only one way to swing a golf club. I strongly feel that the method used should be based on the individual needs of the player to fulfil their requirements and golfing aspirations. Read More
