Pro golfers like Kim Na Heul and Rory Mcilroy practice Pilates to retain their endurance, competitive edge and longevity in the sport. While we weren’t able to speak to either, we were able to converse with golfers experiencing the benefits of Pilates.
Gerald calls himself a COVID golfer, having really got into the game since April last year. His better half introduced him to the idea of staying fit for golf through Pilates.
