TGM is not known in India AT ALL. I ventured out on my own on recommendation from Paul Smith to half way around the world to learn what this little yellow book was all about. I did my GSEB and returned with a much clearer understanding and intention as to what I MUST impart to my students. Having taught for only two years till then, I was noticed by an ametuer while I was teaching a student at the Driving range. A day later he asked me if I could help him as things were not happening with his present coach the way he expected to. Said he had reached a brick wall and had tried everything under the sun but wasnt able to move up the ametuer ranking -26 at the time.

One year later we have a No.1 in the guy and when he looks back at the year passed says" What a trip Sir!! What a trip!!

Thats the power of TGM as far as I am concerned. Many others have come in to the swamp here and all are here to stay. The word is spreading here and who knows!! A TGM summit in India????

Anythings possible.

Thanks for sharing this inspirational experience, Vik. Great stuff!

And I like the reference to your own "swamp" in India. It brought a smile to ol' Yoda's face.

Here we go again. After a TGM student becomes the No.1 golf ametuer in India another one gets second place in the Malaysian Ametuer at 14 under par. Now THATS not too bad going is it. Things are happenning around here people and TGM is coming alive. "I am trying my best Mr. Kelly" Hope you can hear this!!!!

For those who think Vikram got lucky by chancing upon a world beater...think again.

His student Chiragh Kumar was no where near the dominant amateur he is now before he met "Sir". Nuff' said

Congratulations Vikram Is it just my ignorance in the past, or are there a lot more youngsters taking the game up in India?I seem to notice more Indian names in amatuer golf these days-are they about to take over like the Koreans have in the LPGA?.If so,you're going to be busy

humility - I like it Lynn. There are a coule instructors I've seen elsewhere with an absolute deficiency in this regard.
