DAVID THOMAS - PGA GOLF PROFESSIONAL
(ADVANCED COACHING)
Golf – it all comes down to the right technique.
My job as a teaching professional is to improve your free time.
ABOUT ME
An Ideal Learning Environment
My name is David Thomas, I am a fully qualified PGA Advanced Coach and one of Australia's leading golf coaches in 3D & 6D Biomechanics, Trackman, Flightscope, SAM BalanceLab and SAM PuttLab.
I am certified across the board in all of the latest golf technologies and own and use these tools when required to help improve your game.
With 23 years full time coaching experience around the world I am a very experienced and passionate coach and enjoy helping all golfers from beginners to professionals improve their game.
I have worked extensively in all levels of coaching. Prior to coaching at Links Hope Island I completed my traineeship in Brisbane (1996-1998), becoming a full PGA member in 1998. Over the following years I held a PGA Tour Card (Australasian Tour) and resided in Germany from 1999 until 2016 where I taught at my own two golf academies. I have also worked as Head Coach at the Australian P.G.A in Sandhurst, Melbourne.
I speak English (first language) and am fluent in German.
I work at Links Hope Island, Gold Coast, Queensland.
