Why Golf? What makes you want to work in golf?

“Who wouldn’t want to work in golf? I love sports. From the moment I was old enough to walk you’d find me running around with a baseball glove or kicking a soccer ball. I’ve played golf on-and-off for 20 years or so and, been making more and more time to get out to the course. Being able to combine my passion for marketing and analytics with my love of sports is an amazing opportunity!”

Dream Golf Foursome:

Bill Murray

Tiger Woods

Jordan Speith

Me

I’d need the comic relief from Bill Murray if I am going to be playing with the likes of Tiger and Jordan.
