What has been your most memorable golf related surprise? A friend of mine has just had an incredible surprise when he returned home from a weekend away enjoying the delights of Glastonbury.
Aaron Holtom is a golf professional from East Midlands Golf Academy based in Derby and has completed some great tuition content for Golfshake in the past.
He is clearly still jaded from a busy weekend suffering from the post-Glastonbury blues when he wife dropped this bombshell on him.
Apologies for the Poulter-like pyjamas but his facial expression as he realises that she has remodelled his garden is a picture.
What a lucky man to have such an understanding wife.
But this got me thinking of other golf surprises.
My own best golfing surprise is getting an invite last week to play in the Staysure Seniors PGA Championship Pro-Am at the London Golf Club in August. Having the chance to play with some of these Ryder Cup legends is exciting and terrifying in equal measure.
You've seen Aaron's surprise, and also my own. What’s your best golfing surprise? Let us know!
