This week I’m joined by Scott Rose, a former PGA professional who, after ten years in the professional game, has recently returned to the amateur ranks.
Scott’s career in golf has taken him through coaching, custom fitting and some fantastic venues, including Kingsbarns, Fairmont St Andrews and Wells Green. We go right back to how the game first grabbed him while growing up in the Middle East, before following his journey through the PGA and into the wider golf industry.
We also get into:
