PGA Golf Professional

Alison writes :

"Ever since hitting my first shot with my father at the age of eleven, I was hooked!

I went on to represent England at the age of fourteen in the under 18s girls team, I was the youngest player at the time. I represented England in the junior, schools and ladies team and also represented Great Britain & Ireland. At the age of fourteen I played off of a scratch and by sixteen +2 handicap.


Turning Pro

In 1991, I turned professional and played on the Ladies European Tour. I remember playing in my 1st tournament the Italian Open in Rome, feeling rather nervous! However I was over the moon to have made the cut and earned my 1st pay cheque. I played on tour full time for two years, which was a great experience. I then decided to do my PGA Training, in 1996 I qualified as a PGA Professional.

Since 2007 I’ve been a PGA teaching professional at Woodhall Spa The National Golf Centre.

World Transplant Games

In December 2008 I became very ill where an unknown virus was attacking my liver in January 2009 I was given 5 days left to live with out a liver transplant and on my final day luckily for me I had my life saving liver transplant. I am forever great full to my donor and family.

I have been fortunate enough to have been selected to represent Team GB in the world transplant games which is played every two years. I have played in the last three world games – 2015 Argentina / 2017 Malaga / 2019 Newcastle.

I have won the gold medal in the last 3 world games for my age category, I’m currently world champion. So a new challenge for my own golf game!
