It was a pleasure chatting with Welsh European Tour Player Rhys Enoch, this week on the podcast. Rhys joins me from South Africa, where he is competing in the European Tour’s Joburg Open at Randpark GC. Rhys shares some great insights from his game, what makes him one of the longest hitters on the European Tour and what he’s currently working on and he also provides an insight into Tour life.

Rhys shares some great stories playing with the likes of Patrick Reed & Martyn Kaymer during Majors, as well as competing against the likes of Harris English and Rickie Fowler in his college career at ETSU. Rhys tells me more about making the cut at the British Open in 2018 and then the US Open in 2019 and talks me through one of the greatest ever US Open rounds at Pebble Beach! Of course, Rhys also shares one nugget of a story which saw Rhys in a very sticky situation! Thanks for your time Rhys, keep up the great form!
