CADDY

 

Name: Toby Garrett

 

Info: Over the last 4 years I have played all my Golf with Toby, we practice together, play squash together and go to the gym together. He knows my game better than anyone and is such a help when on the bag. Through 2007, Toby is taking a more full time role on the bag and I am sure my results will improve. With Toby on the bag we are both sure we can take my golf to the next level.

THE MENTAL COACH

 

Name: Andrew Wallace           

 

Info: "Drew" is originally from Scotland and is a sport psychologist. He is a keen golfer and teaches all areas of sport science at Myerscough College. He graduated at Stirling University with a Masters degree in psychology and spent a year in the United States coaching football to underprivileged children. Through my years at Myerscough, Drew has worked very hard with me on my game. From goal setting, to pre shot routines, positive thinking and also proper planning of my practice! I had a great season in 2005 and part of this can be put down to Drew! I aim to work as hard through the 2006 season with the help of Drew, because if I do I know I can fulfil my potential for the year, and become a better golfer!
