What a Father's day treat! .. My 13 year old boy struggles to walk very far, so this evening after 85 days in isolation, we got a buggy and went for some fresh air and a few holes. Then he pulls this out the bag! #Hero #NeverGiveUp #mps1 #FathersDay

Didn’t see it as 116-112 but had it as a Usyk win. He never got troubled, he’s hard to hit, very smart boxer and always counters any punch that lands directly. Tyson not got enough ideas in the bank and carrying a lot of weight. We expect KO’s but his boxing IQ is 🚀

Also once asked if my child could stay at home the next day as ofsted were coming in 🙈. Zero support from @DerbyCC and they suspended my child who has an EHCP. These things stick with you…we need to do better to look after vulnerable children and families.

He may not be doing what other 13 year olds do, but he’s happy, he’s kind, and he’s in no hurry to grow up. I love my little boy for who he is and how he sees the World…. I hope he makes you smile to 🙂❤️

Well, when he got them today and they started speaking Japanese to each other he couldn’t stop laughing. Jani is an amazing reminder for me that you need to enter other peoples Worlds and not always expect them to conform to yours. 2/3

Most sports have Offence and Defence. They are defined by when you have the ball and when you don't. In Golf we always have the ball...coaching appears to be mainly based around offence, so here's a list of attacking skills vs defensive.. We need both to shoot good scores 👇🧵

What do great golfers have in common.....when the aim of the game for most is take as few shots as possible, in unpredictable varied conditions, under pressure.

We expect our athletes to hit these zero talent requirements … but do we hit them ourselves as coaches?
