Absolutely! I’m thrilled with the progress of the tour. Especially this season with all the new young talent. It has been exciting to follow.
There have been some compelling storylines in 2019 but clearly the wins by amateurs Robin Williams and Josh Hill stand out. It’s been great for the teens and the tour as a whole hasn’t it?
I am very proud of Robin and Josh; they have both had a tremendous season thus far and we are all looking forward to how the final goes in Jordan. It’s an amazing opportunity for amateur players to join the tour for this exact reason.
What has been the standout moment for you as a sponsor and also from a personal viewpoint?

AMATEURS OFTEN STAND OVER THE BALL with their feet too wide apart. I understand the appeal—they want to feel more stable throughout the swing, and a wider stance seems a logical way to achieve that.
