I think the laid back approach is good although some discipline is needed. Golf teaches children be polite to their elders, it teaches manners as well as how to adhere to rules and regulations on and off the course. So maybe we need to start bringing some of this laid back approach to the UK? Maybe the reason so many of the kids and teenagers coming through the golf tours are Korean, Chinese and Asian is because they get sent over to the states from a young age and get treated like there wanted. I remember not wanting to play golf because none of the ladies wanted to play with me, being told off for having no collar or wearing a short skirt. The modern day golfer is global now and I think its time the UK embraced the fact that children are the next generation of golf clubs. Times have moved on and we have to embrace it.
