Seeing him go on to win his first professional tournament at the 2016 Mens Tour Dubai Creek open where he set a world record equalling nine birdies in a row. Greatest teaching success story: Working with Rayhan Thomas for three years as his putting coach was a pretty special opportunity for me. I was able to frequently watch tour players practicing on site and working with their personal coaches, I was able to shadow coaches such as Sean Foley working with Danny Willet, Alan Thompson working with Tommy Fleetwood. The time spent in Dubai was the most pivotal because being surrounded by excellence was so inspirational for me as an instructor.

We also were very fortunate to meet and learn from Claude Harmon III and Butch.

I worked there from 2012 to 2018 and had the ability to everyday learn from one of the best modern instructors in the world today, Justin Parsons, who was my mentor and boss. Without a doubt the six years I spent working for Butch Harmon. John is able to identify physical limitations that may affect your swing and he has worked with the likes of Darren Clarke, Michael Hoey, Steve Webster and Rayhan Thomas. His coaching style is very much holistic in nature and TPI physical screenings are an integral part. John joined the JCB Golf & Country club after spending seven years as the Senior Instructor at the Butch Harmon School of Golf Dubai. It's a great way to end a session as it recreates some of the feelings you experience on the course and gives you a target to try and beat each time. The par is 18 (obviously) and the tour average is 21. Play three short chip shots, three long chip shots and three bunker shots, holing out each time. This par-18 game is a simple way to achieve that. By introducing an aspect of it into your practice, you'll be better equipped when it really matters. Whether it's during a stroke play competition or in a weekly doubles match against friends, nobody is immune. We've all felt the pressure on the course. Alter the length of swing, how open the face is and the club selection if needs be but keep the set-up and amount of sand taken as constant as possible. Do the same from the bunker, once again controlling the variables. In time, you'll develop a feel for these shots that can be used on the course. Focus on picking out a landing spot for each different distance and practise away.
