Sport Bookazine Guide to Woman's Golf First Edition Vorige editie

From grassroots to tour level, women’s golf is in as good a shape as it’s been for many years, and we’re excited to bring you this book that is packed with content to inspire, inform, entertain and ultimately help you get the most out of the game. Of course, we all play golf for different reasons and this might be a combination of wanting to compete, exercise in the fresh air, the opportunity to learn a new sport, or to meet up socially with friends. Advanced PGA professional Katie Dawkins shares her love of golf and why we should remember that the game can be whatever you want it to be. Golf host and commentator Iona Stephen tells us how she has learnt to be herself in a predominantly man’s world and flourish in her broadcasting role. Anna Nilsson, the new deputy head greenkeeper at The Belfry, will undoubtedly inspire more women to consider a career in greenkeeping, while Kimberley Hill describes her journey from Lady Captain to becoming the first female Club Captain at Headingley, the oldest golf club in Leeds. Golf often still needs a little prod in the right direction to bring its culture into the 21st century, but that cannot be said of golf fashion, which is keeping up with the times – hoodies, joggers and all. We take a look at the pros that have paved the way for today’s fashion, the impact of athleisure, as well as the latest clothes and shoes for that feel-good factor to boost performance. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced player, this book embraces every aspect of women’s golf, so please read on and enjoy.
