                                         Preamble !! Tom Gueant

Hi! Please don't think my golfing succes has gone to my head! This website has been living constructed by my Dad, who is also an avid Golfer...

                

I am the result of a genetic union between my mom and my dad that resulted in my arrival on this planet on March 27, 2002 in Grenoble (France) at 6:45PM with a weight of 4 kg 250 and a length of 54,5 cm.

When I was born, my dad started playing golf. As I prevented him from sleeping at night, he would watch golf on the TV with his buddy Jean Pierre who pushed him to try it...
And boom!!
He put his whole body and mind into it.
He was trapped by this small white ball like a million others. As he usually does, he has given it all he has.
He bought all the cassettes, DVD and books on golf that he could find. He hit thousands of balls. He bought a ton of clubs...
He forced my mom to take me along, who wanted to come, and she had to change my diaper on the 1st green in Uriage.
Seeing his passion gave the desire to me. Right before my 2nd birthday, he bought me my first true golf clubs: Cleveland 3/5 years. They were a little heavy at the beginning.
But I found that it was fun to put this large white ball in the hole.
Then, one day, when I was three years old, he took me along with him to the course at Charmeil.
There was a competition of 10/15 year olds, but I wanted to do it.
My Dad asked Arnaud if he accept me into his Golf School.
As Arnaud saw that I was ready to play with my bag and my carriage, he asked my dad how old I was,. My Dad answered -5 years!!...
Arnaud proposed to let me go to the golf school for a test because he thought that 5 years was a little young!!!
And since then I have remained!!
Afterwards Dad told him that I was only 3 years old and I believe that Arnaud never forgot that! . He left there, and it is a pity. I also had Collette as a teacher.

Later the handsome Jimmy arrived with his golf cart and his golf clubs...
