A guide to golfing in Scotland
Episode 60 is here and this is a really important one.
Joined by Barry Waearing (fndgolfer), current Scottish Open champion for golfers with disabilities, we dive into a conversation that goes far beyond golf.
Barry lives with FND often described as “the most common uncommon condition” and while he does incredible work raising awareness everywhere he goes, this episode also reminds you that he is far more than his condition. He’s a brilliant golfer, a genuine competitor, and an even better person.
We start with his incredible Scottish Open victory before getting into some deeper conversations around FND. Barry was incredibly open and honest answering questions, helping normalise discussions around conditions people may not fully understand.
We talk about:
His golf journey and Scottish Open win
The daily physical and mental struggles of living with FND
What golf can do for mental health and routine
What needs to change in golf to create more competitive opportunities for disabled golfers
WITB and golf ball chat
The most important thing golfers should practice
The future of golf simulators
And of course, a round of This or That
Honestly, this was one of the most eye-opening and enjoyable conversations I’ve had on the podcast.
