techniques
Emirates, the Official Airline

host the Emirates Junior Golf Clinic to reiterate its commitment and support to
golf for Malaysians
right down to the grassroots level.
Fifteen
lucky children comprising young golfers from Kelab Golf Perkhidmatan Awam and
Royal Selangor Golf Club were treated to a coaching session with American professional
golfer, Jason Knutzon.
Apart
from sharing the fundamental basics in golf from putting, chipping and bunker
shots, Jason Knutzon shared tips on how to become successful golfer from
mastering technique through gripping a club properly, ensuring good alignment
and posture to displaying a positive attitude.
“Emirates
is proud to connect Malaysians to golf and we feel
that the Emirates Junior Golf Clinic is a great platform for aspiring young
golfers to learn more about the sport from the professionals themselves. We
hope that this clinic will further nurture their interest and inspire and
motivate them to become the future professional golfers in the country,” said
Mr. Kavin Martinus, Country Manager, Emirates Malaysia.
A nine year old junior
golfer, Grace Chin Jun Li, was ecstatic to be part of
the junior golf clinic, which is the first she has ever participated which involved
a professional golfer. She said, “It was truly exciting to meet Jason Knutzon
and play golf with a great sportsman. I’ve learned so much in just one hour.”
Another
junior golfer, Adam Jema Khan, aged six said, “I had fun at the clinic and hope
to be a professional golfer like Jason Knutzon one day.”
