Golf Factor Talent Search is a junior golf talent competition with the goal of identifying golf talent in the UK to help them become the best they can be in the sport. There is golf support up for grabs for 3 lucky winners, which includes elite equipment, coaching, and personal development at the highest level.

Golf’s high standards of sportsmanship, courtesy, manners and fair play make it stand out from many other sports, and it sets a very good example to young people. Golf is now widely recognised as one of the most popular sports in the country with a reported 4 million golfers taking part in the sport.

Is your child the next Lee Westwood?

Lightning learner Lee took up the game at the age of 13 after his grandparents bought him a half set of clubs, and less than two years later, he was crowned junior champion of home county Nottinghamshire.

Lee won his first amateur event in 1990, turned pro in 1993 after winning the British Youth Championship and it’s been uphill from there. During his successful career, Lee has won 18 events on the European Tour and has also won tournaments in America, Africa, Asia and Australia. His Official World Golf Ranking peaked at 4th, and in 2000 he won 7 tournaments worldwide and was ranked first on the European Order of Merit, ending Colin Montgomerie's long run of European Tour dominance.

A regular on the Ryder Cup team, Lee has played in the last six successive competitions. 2006 saw Lee further embellish his magnificent Ryder Cup record when, for the second successive time, he remained unbeaten in all five matches.
