I think going down the route of technology and something that everyone understands – especially the younger generation – that’s where this can be really helpful.”I’ve realised over the last few years how good the game of golf has been to me – never in my wildest dreams did I think I’d be in the position that I’m in – and it feels like it is a way for me to give back to the game of golf in a way, but also try to bring it into the 21st century and not make it feel as intimidating or inaccessible as it maybe used to be.”There are still a lot of places in the world where golf is very much an aspirational sport and I think we need to try and break down that barrier a little bit.” GolfPass is now available on Sky Q Click here to discover more about an exclusive offer for Sky VIP customers…….
