I got my first golf club when I was 9 years old but I only had one lesson. When I was 10 we had mini kids golf at my primary school and I started playing. After a while I started going to group sessions at my local golf club in Tidworth where I was taught by one of the pros - Charlie Gold. I then progressed to the junior academy with the head pro at Tidworth. Charlie moved away as he found a new job however I still have individual lessons with Charlie as he is my main coach.

Cumberwell Junior Open
Today I played in the Cumberwell Junior Open I played with a 1 handicapper called Jake. I had played with Jake before at a different competition and it is always nice to see how a good player player golf compared to you. I shot an 85 which was 3 over my handicap, however, The standard scratch went down to 70. I played OK apart from I could not hole a putt, mainly on the first 9 because the greens were in such bad condition. Overall I was fairly disappointed but you can't win them all.
