359 - 652 Courses in 365 Days - Josh Simpson

Josh Simpson joins the podcast (a.k.a 'the Ginger Golfer') to talk about his world record breaking effort over the last 12 months playing 652 courses in a year, eclipsing the previous 581 World Record. 

We talk about Josh's introduction to the sport, and how he turned a tragic chapter in his life into a force for good, raising nearly £100,000 for two wonderful charities: Macmillan Cancer Support and Tapping House. We've put the link for further donations here so you can contribute to the money raised.

We also discuss the trials and tribulations of life on the road, some of his favourite courses and also his - soon to be trademarked - shower rating system. The 10 point rating criteria can be found below:

• 2.5pts: Shower Pressure
• 2pts: Temperature (consistency & warmth)
• 2pts: 'Look'
• 1pt Towel Provided (yes or no)
• 1pt: Privacy / Draft / Space
• 0.5pts: Amenities (0.1pt for each amenity provided)
• 0.5pts: Dials accessed without getting hands wet
• 0.5pts: No need to keep pushing to activate

(Only Sunningdale & The Caversham have swept up 10 points so far!)
