via City AM:

The Aramco Team Series might boast some of the best women’s golfers in the
world but that doesn’t mean that it remains roped off to non-professionals.

George Blackshaw, known to thousands of followers on social media as the
Amputee Golfer <https://www.instagram.com/theamputeegolfer/?hl=en>, was one
of those who got the chance to play alongside the elite at the London stage
of last year’s series.

Each team in the series features one amateur alongside their three
professionals. Many are connected to tournament partners but in Blackshaw’s
case he won a competition for a lucky amateur to play at Centurion Club.

“I was thrilled to have been chosen to take part,” the 23-year-old from
Cheshire told *City A.M. *

“It was a surreal feeling to be walking the fairways in a Ladies European
Tour golf event and to be able to showcase disability golf on a large scale
was really special.
