Finally, it feels like things are falling into place, as they should be.”Sky Sports News presenter Shah added: “I talk a lot about sport and golf for my job, but I’ve not had the opportunity to play the game, so I’m so excited to learn the ropes myself. I’m excited about the physical side, getting stronger and learning how my body can work in a different way. Bela Shah is also taking part “It’s not just about winning for me; I want to learn how to do it, do it well and see the progression as I go through.” Marcus Black, co-founder of Slingsby Gin, said: “We’re so pleased to have these four inspirational and influential women as part of our inaugural Academy. The enthusiasm and competitiveness Fleur, Helen, Natalie and Bela have shown already, despite the courses being closed has been incredible.”They have been practising their putting in the kitchen and swing in the back garden through lockdown. Alongside their Pro they are now raring to go. With their involvement in this campaign, we can let women know that golf is a sport that can be built into busy life schedules allowing you to be active and enjoy socialising with friends at the same time.”
