This week, you’ll hear from John Serhan, one of Australia’s most successful golf coaches who is currently head teaching professional at St Michael’s Golf Club in Sydney’s east, having previously won NSW PGA Coach of the Year. Now, he coaches juniors right through to touring professionals.
He knows all too well that people like Tiger Woods are the exception, not the rule. In June this year, a report by Forbes, estimated Tiger Woods’ net worth to be at least $US 1 billion, including $121 million in prize money.
There’s certainly dollar signs in the eyes of some parents, who’d love for their kids to follow in these footsteps by taking up the game of golf. So, what does it take to be a professional golfer? How important are role models like Australia’s Minjee Lee, who recently won the US Women’s Open?
And, why golf is a great sport for young athletes, in the final episode for this season.
