Held at Yas Links Abu Dhabi Golf Club from tomorrow until Friday, April 24, the four-day course is designed to cover the all the essential elements needed to play the game.

Although it’s designed to get newcomers up to speed, the course can also benefit experienced players by stripping away to the basics and strengthening foundations.

“We have four days and each day is looking at a different area of the game,” said PGA professional Buchanan. “It’s just setting up a foundation really. It’s designed for complete beginners or some people who have played a little bit before and are just looking to get a bit more guidance in each different area of the game.

“You certainly won’t master it in a week but you’ll have a better idea of what you’re doing.”

Buchanan has you covered with a crash course in each facet of the game. The first day introduces the basics, such as grip, set-up and proper posture.

From there, players will get more comfortable with the various swings before getting acclimated to different clubs. On the final day, it will be all about getting the ball in the hole with players learning the all-important short game.

“Obviously if people have played before, they have a rough idea of what they’re doing, but even the guys that have played, it’s nice for them to go through it to see they might be holding the grip slightly wrong, or not stood quite in the right position,” said Buchanan.

“Then we try a few of the different clubs and different shots throughout the week. The Friday afternoon session is generally chipping and putting and all shorter shots. By the end of the week, I’m not saying that anyone is going to be an expert by any means, but hopefully you’ll have a few things to work on and practice.”

The week of lessons costs Dh895 per person and includes two complimentary par-3 rounds and one month practice pass for the guest range.

Get ready for a clinic in the fundamentals with Buchanan and start your playing days with Learn Golf in a Week.
