The Golf College aims to produce the great British golfers of tomorrow
Denis Pugh, the man credited with being behind Colin Montgomerie's monumental
success, has teamed up lifestyle coach Pete Cohen and Paul Lyons, former tour
player and Southern Region PGA Captain 2005, to launch a new golfing centre of
excellence with the aim of helping produce the Open champions and Ryder Cup
players of tomorrow.
The Golf College Group educates boys and girls aged between 16-19 years
currently playing off a handicap of 5 or lower, providing students with the
best technical and physiological training, priming them for a career at the
top level.
Denis Pugh said: "This country has not had an Open champion since 1999 when
Paul Lawrie won and before that we have to go right back to Nick Faldo in 1992
for another home grown winner. The reason for this is that we do not focus on
training our youngsters from an early enough age. There is currently no provision
for talented golfers to continue with their education at the same time
as focusing on their game."
Pete Cohen added: "We feel that a more holistic approach to education and coaching
will help our golfing talent of today become the golfing greats of tomorrow."
The Golf College Group welcomes its next intake of students in September 2009.
