Rookie Scottish golf pro made honorary member of home club

Rookie pro Gregor Graham will be teeing off his 2025 campaign as a proud Honorary Member of Blairgowrie Golf Club.

The honour from the Perthshire club is recognition of the 21-year-old’s “outstanding achievements in amateur golf”.

Graham won both the South African Amateur Championship and Brabazon Trophy last year and was also the first amateur to win on the Tartan Pro Tour in 2023.

He has joined his younger brother Connor in being made an honorary member at their home club and said: “What the club is doing for Connor and myself is brilliant. They are hugely supportive and being granted honorary membership is amazing.

“We have grown up learning the game at Blairgowrie. I was probably practicing putting and chipping with my dad, Stuart, when I was five. I joined when I was eight and it has been brilliant getting access to the great facilities at the club, along with playing on the courses.”

Club captain Alistair Batchen said: “The Graham brothers have been flying the flag for Blairgowrie at home and abroad for several years and members are following their progress with interest.

“Gregor is coming off a fabulous season as an amateur and we wish him well as he takes his first steps into the professional ranks.”

Graham made his pro debut after securing a late spot in last month’s Alfred Dunhill Championship and will be returning to South Africa for the start of the Challenge Tour campaign at the end of this month.
