Journalism
Golfplus Media shares your passion for the game, from the grass roots to the major Tours of the world.
Bringing the stories of the great players, coaches, course architects and other characters in the game to the fore have been of keen interest to me over the years, as are the stories of those that might not be so prominent but are no less fascinating.
The story of Betsy King’s charitable deeds in Africa through her foundation ‘Golf Fore Africa’ or the rags to riches tale of Maha Sinnathamby and the infectious enthusiasm that he brings to his quest to create the World’s Best Master Planned City at Springfield near Brisbane, Australia.
We look forward to the opportunity to talk to you to help bring your Golf or Leisure related story, service, product or brand to greater prominence through our writing services and advertorial content production.
