Colin Fisher PGA

My name is Colin Fisher I am the Head Teaching Professional at the World of Golf in Glasgow. I am a fully qualified PGA Professional and have been awarded 'Advanced Professional'  status by the PGA in recognition of my learning and achievements. I am also a qualified NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming) Sports Practitioner.

While I have had higher placed finishes, the highlights of my playing career would have to be finishing 6th in the 1999 Scottish Professional's championship at Gleneagles, Playing in the European Tour event Scottish PGA at Gleneagles (Now the Johnnie Walker Scottish PGA)in 2000, and 10th place in the 2000 Singh Beer Masters in Thailand. Regretfully I have played very little competitive golf over the last few seasons due to teaching commitments, but in my last 3 outings I shot -2 in the 2006 Sandyhills Pro-am finishing 5th, -4 in the 2006 Easter Moffat Pro-am finishing 4th and +4, 21st place (with a bogey strewen last few holes) in the 2006 Elderslie Pro-am. Thinking back, I bogeyed the last hole in each of those rounds! I shall need to remedy that!

Starting my Professional career at the East Renfrewshire Golf Club in 1993, I then moved to the prestigious Loch Lomond Golf Club in 1999. During the winter seasons I travelled out to Asia to play and was based in Thailand.  In 2001 I took up the position of Teaching Professional at the World of Golf in Glasgow, (being promoted to Head Teaching Professional in 2006) and have been teaching players of all ages and standards since.

During my time at World of Golf, I have had the opportunity to work with some accomplished players, including tour professionals. Due to this I had a trip out to coach and caddie for one player at the American Express World Golf Championships in San Francisco in October 2005 (eventually won by none other than Tiger Woods).

I work with my students to meet their objectives and really involve the student in their own learning. This ensures that there is not only a fast improvement but more importantly, students have a clear understanding of what they are working on and why.
