Hi,

I’m Chris…

I have a passion for all things golf and having lived my dream of competing on the DP World Tour through the 2016/17/18 seasons (94 appearances)

I now use those years of experiences in my roles as a coach, event organiser, player manager and Tour Director on the 2020protour!

Quote…

“I couldn’t have been happier with sponsoring Chris this year. Chris promoted my company’s brand and worked across all of his social media, and managed to turn multiple leads into profitable jobs.

Chris is a great guy both on and off the course and if anyone deserves another crack on the Tour it’s him. His endless hard work and dedication to the game will, I’m sure, take him back to where he belongs with the big names on Tour.

I can’t recommend him enough as both a coach and a player to anyone looking to sponsor an elite golfer.”
