I had the pleasure of supporting the third @PFA Northern Golf Classic last Friday at @shawhill1 in Preston. A fantastic event that was won by a team of former players from @OfficialBWFC for the second time. Thanks very much to @HMS_Digital and @rosharrisonHMS for the video below!

A year on from my brother’s death and the regulation of mandatory heart screens in the UK is still below par. Players must be protected better. THIS NEEDS TO CHANGE @GaryLineker @PepTeam Please rt and get this the attention it deserves. nytimes.com/athletic/63700…
