Driving up standards

More than million people around the world are improving their golf by watching Rick Shiels on YouTube – but his wife isn’t one of them.

The couple’s eldest daughter, six-year-old Ivy, is keen to follow in her dad’s footsteps to the first tee, but her mum Claire has little or no interest in the sport.

‘The only one of my videos my wife has watched was the one with Robbie Williams,’ Rick said. ‘Maybe I need to get him along more often.’
