It all started when Guy was in the pro shop and Tina walked in and asked him about giving her 5-year-old daughter, Lydia, her first golf lesson. Lydia couldn't even speak English and could barely see over the counter.
Guy agreed and over the next 11 years, he created, coached, and guided little Lydia to the world stage and ingrained in her a strong foundation for one of the most envied swings in golf!
At the end of 2022, Lydia Ko was ranked the Number 1 woman golfer in the world for the second time in her record-breaking career.
Guy continues to create champions at the Institute of Golf in New Zealand. Another former student, Ruoning (Judy) Yin whom he coached for years recently won the LPGA LA Open Championship in Los Angeles on April 2, 2023.
Here is what others have said about Guy,
"I want to congratulate you, Guy, on the great foundation you built in Lydia Ko. Anything you build you have kept in mind how long it is going to last, and over the years you can make small changes, but a well-built foundation will last a lifetime." - Larry O'Brien, Stanford Golf Club professional.
"What separates Guy from other coaches who are standing on the range and delivering just instruction -- and that of course is part of coaching -- is this: to look into the person's eyes and start to understand and learn about the student." -- Gregory Thorpe, High-Performance Golf Manager, Golf NZ
