‘Secrets from The Tour’ Revealed at New Golf Festival

Two of Britain’s most experienced golf coaches will reveal tips and secrets from over 100 years in the sport – including coaching Ryder Cup heroes and European Tour players – at Britain’s newest festival of golf taking place at Thorpeness, Suffolk from Jul 28-31.

PGA Master Professional Bill Ferguson, former coach to Colin Montgomerie, 2011 Open Champion Darren Clarke and five-time Major Champion Seve Ballesteros, will join Suffolk PGA Captain Frank Hill to deliver a ‘Secrets from the Tour’ coaching clinic at the brand new Thorpeness Festival of Golf.

The clinic is part of a four day golf festival at Thorpeness Hotel and Golf Club, a James Braid designed heathland course on Suffolk’s Heritage coast, from July 28-31.

Frank Hill is Head Professional at host venue Thorpeness Hotel and Golf Club and captain of the PGA (Professional Golfers Association) Suffolk branch.

Bill Ferguson, himself a winner on the European Tour, teaches at The Leeds Golf Centre and is one of only 32 Master PGA Golf Professionals in the world.

He taught eight-time European Tour Order of Merit winner Colin Montgomerie how to play golf and worked with golf icon Seve Ballesteros and Darren Clarke during his career as a European Tour Coach. He has also been coach to The English Golf Union and the English Ladies Golf Association.

‘Secrets from the Tour’ takes place on Tuesday July 29 and Wednesday July 30 from 8:30am at Thorpeness Golf Club practice ground.

The clinic is free to competitors in the Thorpeness Festival of Golf. Individual tickets for the clinic only can be purchased by golfers for £10 on the day.

There are places still available for the Thorpeness Festival of Golf, including three night accommodation packages in the club’s 36-bedroom golf hotel (including dinner, B&B, golf and entertainment) from £449.

Golfers can also attend individual competitions and events, including ‘Golf Unplugged,’ a golf trick shot exhibition by World Golf Trick Shot Champion Geoff Swain, a cheese and wine tasting experience hosted by Suffolk brewer Adnam’s, barbecues and a variety of golf competitions across the four days.
