Joining me is a great guy with a truly inspirational story of grit and determination. Golf Professional Sion Bebb joins me from Morlais Castle Golf Club in Wales (UK) where he’s the teaching professional. Sion tells me how he turned professional aged 17 and kept working on his game, steadily improving, before finally securing his Challenge Tour card and winning on Tour.

In 1999, Sion won the British Club Professional Championship and played against the USA Club professionals. He would also visit the European Tour school on several occasions and was mentally tough enough to get through numerous times, the first time he gained his European Tour card was in 2006, 20 years after first turning professional!

Sion would go on to win the 2006 Ryder Cup Wales challenge and that’s a story in itself. Sion also tells me more about his Grandfather William Ambrose Bebb, a famous Welsh author who helped found political party Plaid Cymru and also his father, Dewi Bebb, a Welsh Rugby Player who toured with the famous Lions Rugby team to both South Africa and New Zealand and many other countries as well in those days.

Sion talks openly about the highs and lows of life on Tour and explains what it takes to succeed at the top level. There is also one excruciating story he shares. Thanks for your time Sion and for sharing your amazing journey with me!
