    (Ep 198) Ffion Tynan

    In this episode I was pleased to be joined by Ffion Tynan who has just turned professional after gaining Ladies European Tour Category 19 status as well as a full status on LET Access Series for 2026. Ffion is from Llanharry in Wales and would pick up the game by chance at 8 years old during a holiday in Orlando where she would get spotted and asked to play more after. From age 11 Ffion has represented Wales in all forms something she is extremely proud of and would eventually go to the States at both University of Arkansas & University of Missouri. Ffion has had some great junior success with taking part in 2x Vagliano Trophy's as well as being the English U14 Champion, IMG World Challenge Champion, Scottish U18 Champion, Welsh Ladies Strokeplay Champion, Sir Henry Cooper Invitional Champion, Welsh Girls' Champion, Welsh Amateur Champion as well as this year's European Club Trophy Individual Champion in Slovakia.  At Q School on LET Ffion would navigate through to final stage where after R1 she would be near the top of the leaderboard before admittedly struggling but all learning experience as she gains status for next year!  Thanks Ffion, a bubbly, fun person with immense talent!     Download via Podbean, Apple & Spotify

    (Ep 197) Hannah Holden Golf

    I was pleased to be joined in this episode by Social Media & YouTube star Hannah Holden who took time after Christmas shopping to chat with me about a range of topics after some recent controversial sexist takes from another pro went viral. Hannah is from Yorkshire and is a very good 3 handicap golfer who has represented the county of Yorkshire for the best part of a decade and would finish 7th at Irish Amateur & 17th at British Amateur Championship as well as play at Royal Troon in the Scottish Amateur.  We chat about the growth in the Women's game with increased prize funds and figure out who out of the LET players that got their LPGA card could go well as well as talk about Jeeno and others. Recently on Instagram a clip from Thomas Devine a PGA pro surfaced saying that he is sick of so called golf influencers trying to gain attention in response to a video Hannah put up about someone giving her unsolicited putting advice while filming in Majorca so as a result we of course had to talk about the sexism on display with some horrific takes in there from the pro. In the past year Hannah on her first year on YouTube has amassed over 24 thousand subscribers with some great content including interviewing the great man himself Justin Rose testing his knowledge on Ryder Cup while at Rose Ladies Series event (very nice!). Hannah does some great content on there so be sure to check out her YouTube channel! Hannah you were great, keep doing what you are doing and all the best for 2026!

    (Ep 191) Day 3 Andalucia Open de Espana with Lisa Pettersson & Alex Forsterling

    Today in my 3rd day as media for the podcast at Andalucia Costa del Sol Open de Espana on 1st day of tournament I was joined by 2023 Helsingborg Open winner Lisa Pettersson & 4x LET title winner Alexandra Forsterling as they came for a brief chat about their day in the Malaga sun as well as give people an insight into how Real Guadalhorce is playing as well as finding out their plans for the festive season. Lisa Pettersson would finish -4 today including a 30ft eagle putt in on 4th hole as she was playing alongside Alessandra Fanali & Kelsey Bennett. Lisa admitted that she has not got a lot to play for bar the win after a solid campaign has her inside the top 30 in the LET Order of Merit standings although still the utmost professional she seems relaxed and definitely looking forward to Christmas time. Today is Alexandra Forsterling's 26th Birthday what better way than to spend it with friends and loved ones in Malaga. Lexi admitted that her pputting got her out of jail at times today although a disappointing finish for the 4x LET champ it's small directions onto the comeback trail after losing a bit of confidence on LPGA Tour last year then dealing with a couple of injuries and not back to her brilliant best yet. It was great to chat with Alex on her birthday as her tour mates got her a nice cake. Happy Birthday Lexi! Thanks Lisa & Alex for coming to chat after play today!
