I started my golf journey in Vilamoura with 5 years old.
I have played and improved my game over the years by competing and learning with great coaches.
Since 2018 that I have been focused on coaching and helping golfers to learn this game and to be able to play their best game ever.

This game is not about the good shots is about how good are our bad shots.

Golf Course
Laranjal Golf Course Quinta do Lago, Algarve
Laranjal golf course named as it was originally an orange grove and opened in 2009 is the newest Quinta do Lago golf course. Designed in an American style, very long and wide with huge fast greens. There is only one hole which is slightly high. Hole 9 is a beautiful Par 5 with water protecting the green and hole 7 is one of the longest par 3 in Portugal with 236m from the pro tees . Laranjal is a challenging golf course but would suit all players and is a special friendly golf course for ladies enabling them to enjoy 877mt less distance between the red and yellow tees. A beautiful well liked golf course with great views. The Ocean is visible and due to the location in the laranjal, or orange grove you will be able to pick the oranges as you play! (...)
