All of us have struggled with our sand game at one time or another, so I’ve called in European Tour player Paul Waring to give me much-needed bunker tips.

I visited Paul at his home club Bromborough on the Wirral where he took me through a few key points on how I can become more confident in the sand.

Bunker tips: Key points

One of the main points Paul talks about in his bunker tips is making sure your left heel is on line with the ball. To do this, in practice draw a couple of lines both vertically and horizontally through the ball.

Watch the video at the top of the page to get more bunker tips from Paul.

About Paul Waring

Paul Waring had a stellar amateur career which included winning the English Amateur in 2005 before turning pro in 2007.

He earned his European Tour card at Q School the same year and, after a third-place finish at the 2013 Portugal Masters and a runner-up spot at the 2017 Joburg Open, Paul got his breakthrough in his 200th start, winning the 2018 Nordea Masters.

Paul’s CV also boasts a top 20 at the Open Championship.

The Merseysider is an ardent Liverpool fan.
