Playing golf has been a profession for myself and Mane for several years. Playing and practicing hasn’t only been a fun past-time for us, it has been the job that brings food to the table.

Have you ever wondered what would happen if you got to play golf against some of the best players in the world? It may not sound like you would have great odds playing against the likes of Rory McIlroy, Henrik Stenson or Ian Poulter, but what if it was match play? And you got to…
You know how they say that “less is more”? Well, we don’t necessarily agree with that. Or what do you think of a golf tournament with over 250,000 participants and more than 100 winners? For the second consecutive year, Golf GameBook organised the biggest (and most fun) golf tournament in Finland. Starting in the beginning of…
