We need to see more young girls taking up the sport. Is that an area you are determined to help support this year?
JM: “Of course. There are pockets of girls doing very well. Craigmillar Park are doing a grand job, and Strathmore, Paisley, Peebles and many others. I think it comes from enthusiastic people in the club. It’s obviously about having an interest in golf, but there are early retired people that we could tap into for more support. The health benefits are there through golf, it’s so good for your mental health among other things, and it’s great for company and to make friends. It’s also a fantastic sport for networking in a business capacity. You meet friends for life. I’ve met so many interesting people through clubs.
