Garcia receives hilarious letter from young fan
The Spaniard is a popular figure in the golfing world but one fan may just be his biggest fan yet
We all had that one hero when we were young that one day we hoped we would either meet or gain some form of contact with.
Well, golf fan Alex Windebank has managed just that.
The youngster has found Twitter fame after sending Sergio Garcia a letter outlining what he wanted from the rest of the Spaniard’s career.
It seems that the letter, that was dated back to the end of October, has only just found its way into Sergio’s hands and it’s fair to say that the Masters champion enjoyed reading it as he shared it on his Twitter account with his followers…
This is one of the cutest, nicest and funniest letters I’ve ever received! Love the way kids see everything! Nothing better than being a kid! Thank you Alex Windebank ? pic.twitter.com/rPrsS73E7t

Alex has said that with practice he would like to see Sergio earn another 23 major titles and reach 90 PGA Tour wins. So, just the greatest golfer of all time then.
Notably he would like the Spaniard to win the Open a number of times just like the rest of the golfing world.
No pressure Sergio. You best get practicing!
Will the TaylorMade M2 go down as one of the best ever drivers?

Off with his head! Wait for me to play or pay the price
Matthew Beedle
Matthew has been playing golf since he was around 13 and took up the game at a local nine-hole municipal course with his friends before joining Pontefract & District Golf Club just over the hedge.
Still a member of Pontefract with a handicap of 3, he currently sits on the board of directors to help with digital and marketing initiatives in order to improve membership and visitor income.
Matthew graduated university with a First Class in Sports Journalism from Leeds Trinity University and has been working in the golf industry since graduating.
NCG’s social media & marketing manager, Matthew’s main job role is to increase website traffic to the National Club Golfer website via our email and social media channels as well as driving entries to grow our NCG Top 100s Tour events amongst other tasks.
Not one to change his equipment too often, Matthew currently plays the TaylorMade M2 driver which has lasted the test of time in his bag. Elsewhere, you’ll find him using the TaylorMade Stealth 2 three-wood with a Ping G425 Crossover 2-iron to aid his long game.
Through his 4-iron to Gap Wedge, Matthew uses the Ping i500 irons accompanied by Ping’s Glide 3.0 56-degree and 60-degree wedges.
Another club that has stood the test of time in his bag is a Nike Method Core MC-3i putter which has had to have the SuperStroke grip changed at least three times. Ball of choice is the Titleist ProV1.
