“I have to thank Merchiston Golf Academy for an incredible golf programme and the coach, Alan Murdoch, has really taken my game to a different level. Alan has helped me technically, instilled a belief and taught me how to compete. Golf Fit coach Craig Tumblety, who works with all of the Golf Academy boys, must take a huge amount of credit too.”
Calum has signed a letter of intent to enrol at the University of Louisiana, Monroe, USA in the Autumn 2013 semester.
