Teaching Philosophy
Golf has been my entire life — from growing up in Pordenone, Italy and joining the Italian National Team at 13, to competing in college at TCU, turning professional, and now walking the fairways every week as a caddie on the Ladies European Tour. Every step of that journey has taught me something new about this game, and I bring every one of those lessons into my coaching. I believe no two golfers are the same. Your swing, your body, your mindset, and your goals are unique — and your improvement plan should be too. My approach is built around truly understanding you as a player: where you are now, where you want to go, and what's standing in the way. From there, I build a structured, personalised plan that gives you clarity and direction, not confusion. I combine modern analytical tools — including Sportsbox AI 3D analysis and detailed video breakdowns — with the intuitive, on-course intelligence you can only gain from years of competing and caddying at the professional level. I know what it feels like to stand over a pressure putt, to work through a swing issue before a tournament round, and to trust a process under the heat of competition. That lived experience shapes everything I teach. Open communication is at the heart of what I do. I want my students to feel comfortable reaching out, asking questions, and sharing their progress at any point. Golf is a journey — let's make yours a great one.
About the coach
I'm a PGA Certified Coach and Italian PGA member with a playing and coaching career that has taken me from the Italian National Team through NCAA Division I golf at TCU, onto the professional tours of Europe, and now to the caddyyard of the Ladies European Tour.
Born and raised in Pordenone, Italy, I represented the Italian National Team for 13 years (2009–2022) before earning a full scholarship to compete at Texas Christian University in the Big 12 — one of the most competitive conferences in American college golf. At TCU, I earned multiple Academic All-Big 12 honours, the Cleveland Golf/Srixon All-America Scholar award, and the TCU Dutch Meyer Male Scholar Athlete of the Year. After graduating, I turned professional in 2019 and competed on the Alps Tour, Challenge Tour, and DP World Tour until 2022.
Today, I coach players at the highest levels of amateur and professional golf, and I serve as the full-time caddie for Alessandra Fanali — Italy's top-ranked women's player — on the Ladies European Tour. That weekly presence inside the ropes at LET events gives me a perspective very few coaches can offer: real-time, live-tour insight into strategy, course management, pressure, and performance.
My coaching is entirely personalised. I use Sportsbox AI 3D analysis, slow-motion video breakdowns, and live Zoom sessions to deliver structured, data-informed lessons that fit your schedule and goals — whether you're a beginner, a competitive amateur, or an aspiring professional. Students consistently tell me I have a sharp eye for diagnosis and a gift for making complex swing concepts easy to understand and implement.
My journey is your advantage — let's build yours together.
