Major assignment for rules man Sam
Our very own Sam Barker-Sabido is playing a key role during this week’s AIG Women’s Open.
CGC member Sam, who works as Rules of Golf Manager at England Golf, has been invited by the R&A to officiate at the event, which started at Royal Lytham and St Annes Golf Club yesterday and runs until Sunday.
Sam will be working as a member of a team of referees from across the globe.
During the first two days he’s covering a segment of the course. Then on each of Saturday and Sunday he’ll be assigned a match to referee as the world’s top players battle for the coveted title after making the cut.
What an incredible achievement for Sam and a great honour for our club to have him as a member. Great work Sam, a proud moment for yourself and your family, who are such a valued part of our club.
