Tom O'Mahoney![]() Since 1989 (when I joined the junior Dutch team), I was taught by Tom and we see each other on a regular basis to check my swing. The winter season leaves more room to work together intensively on minor enhancements. Tom’s vision is without any doubt unique. Over the years I have learned a lot on the swing and its set-up. Tom’s strength lies in his ability to pass the message in different ways, allowing me to enhance my swing in my own way. A nice example occurred at the Dutch championships of 1996 at Hoge Kleij. The day before the tournament I started to hook my balls (left). Immediately I went to see Tom to ask his advice on the problem. I hit 5 balls in total, Tom wished me good luck and left. Four days later I became Dutch champion with –11, still the best score after four rounds in Dutch amateur golf. |

Alan Fine![]() In his early days he was totally involved in Tennis and was working/coaching for the British tennis association, including the Davis Cup team. Than he got involved in the game of golf and had great succes with David Feherty in the nineties. As Alan moved to the States he stopped working with his players in Europe to concentrate on his new business which he was setting up in the States. But as players in Europe asked him to come back again on tour he now travels regularly between the States and Europe to accompany us to about five tournaments a year. Outside those tournaments I speak with him on the phone on a weekly basis. Alan has helped me a lot to strenghten my focus and to become more an stable person on and of the golfcourse. |
