Lee Johnson is a seasoned PGA Professional who brings a wealth of experience to his coaching.
From junior development coaching when he coached the likes of Paul Casey, Anthony Wall and Andrew Coltart (all of whom went on to Tour success) to individual tuition for thousands of men and women ranging from club golfers to Tour professionals, including Australian Brett Ogle and Scot Gary Orr. Lee enjoys coaching all levels of golfers from his base at the Drift Golf Club in Surrey.
“Success for my pupils is my teaching motivation and this has been another great year. Three ladies from Effingham GC in Surrey, joined me in Marrakech in March and subsequently have each gone on to win a major trophy at the club this summer. It is particularly pleasing that along with another five of their friends, they are joining me again at the Palmeraie Palace Resort for another week of golf, tuition and fun in February.
There have been many other great performances from my pupils recently, not least European Tour player Gary Orr winning both the Scottish and French Senior Opens in 2019!
Whatever your age, handicap and golf goals, your development and success is my No.1 priority, and my pre-season golf tuition weeks are structured to help you get your golf year off to the perfect start; so why not join me on one of my personal golf weeks in the sun?"

Typical Week's Schedule
The October & November weeks will extend your golfing summer and are ideal preparation for your winter practice schedule; whilst the February, March and April weeks allow you to escape during winter’s coldest months and are the perfect forerunner to the new golf season. With all aspects of your game covered, you can look forward to benefiting from Lee’s teaching experience and expertise, and getting next season off to the best possible start.
All tuition will be tailored to suit the capabilities of the individuals, whilst the group will be kept to a maximum of nine to allow Lee to deal with each participant on a personal level as well as in a small group environment.
Coaching takes place every day: four group lessons and two individual sessions. There are 18 holes included on five days too, with one afternoon off for sightseeing (or lying by the pool?). Coaching covers:
