Sandringham Pro to learn from Greg Norman's Coach
Sandringham's PGA Golf Pro and coach Brent German is about to add another feather to his coaching cap. The AAA-accredited coach, who has been teaching here at Sandringham Golf Club for the past 18 months, is heading to the USA in January to learn from one of the world's leading golf coaches. Jim McLean, commonly now known as Greg Norman's coach, is by far the most elite golf coach in the world with golfing academies across the United States and Europe. He is also author of the best-selling golf book "The 8 Step Swing".
Brent has been invited to spend some quality time with Jim at his golfing epicentre - Doral Golf Resort in Miami, which is lauded as one of the most exclusive coaching territories in the world. It is also home to the World Golf Championships.
"This is a trip of a lifetime for me," says Brent. "In my books, Jim is the best coach in the world and I have wanted to meet him for a long time."
"Having the chance to learn from him and his brilliant team of coaches will add enormous depth to my own knowledge and will enhance my teaching abilities. I can't wait to share the benefits with my clients when I get back."
During 2009, Brent has conducted two Jim McLean-inspired super clinics which received rave reviews. When he returns to Australia in early February, local golfers should do themselves a favour and check out his new-found knowledge.
While Brent is in the United States, he'll also take the opportunity to attend the world's biggest golf show - the PGA Golf Show - in Orlando. And while he's in that neck of the woods, he'll also play a few rounds at Bay Hill (Arnold Palmer's home course) and Sawgrass - a golfer's paradise.
