Sarah Stirk Sky Sports Golf presenter reflects on the journeys that shaped her, from discovering golf as an injured teen to playing Augusta National, travelling the world, and finding her favourite courses, cities, and unforgettable travel moments.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n
\n
\n
\n

When did you first pick up a golf club<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n
\n
\n
\n

I was 17, a tennis player and I had a bad injury. I was studying at Millfield School in the sixth form and my housemaster, Mr Wilson, took me to the driving range one evening, we hit a few balls…I wasn\u2019t addicted straight away, but it got me into the sport, and I started to play more and more.<\/p>\n

Little did I know that evening would lead to presenting the biggest tournaments in the game. I currently play off a seven handicap.<\/p>\n

\n
\n
\n
\n

What\u2019s your favourite golf resort<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n
\n
\n
\n

There\u2019s so many, I love Harbour Town on Hilton Head Island, playing the 18th with the famous lighthouse, is memorable, it\u2019s also a very playable golf course off the forward tees.<\/p>\n

Quinta do Logo is my favourite place to golf, I\u2019ve got a place there, I\u2019ve spent a lot of time there over the past 20 years, I love Portugal the lifestyle, the beaches, and the people.<\/p>\n

Old Head in Ireland also needs to get a mention, you can see the sea from every hole and is an experience like no other.<\/p>\n

\n
\n
\n

Who would be your ideal holiday golf partners<\/strong><\/p>\n

Rory Mcllroy, I\u2019ve known him for years and would be great to play with him, Taylor Swift, because she\u2019s amazing, funny, and brilliant for what she does for women and very empowering, and finally Michael McIntyre because he would be hilarious to play with, I think the four of us together would have a good crack.<\/p>\n

\n
\n
\n

Where did you go for your most recent holiday<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Algarve, I tend to go on short haul holidays, now having a family commitment, my plan is to retire over there.<\/p>\n

\n
\n
\n
\n

Best memory in golf<\/strong><\/p>\n

Playing Augusta National, the day after the 2023 Masters, they have the media ballot, with Sky Sports being the rights holder, we get one golden ticket a year to play the course on the Monday, my boss handed me the invitation in an envelope on the Sunday as we went into work.<\/p>\n

It was great to play with all the scoreboards up, getting up and down from 100 yards on the 18th for a Par was the highlight of my round, it was an amazing experience and I shot and 96 which I was very happy with using borrowed clubs.<\/p>\n

\n
\n
\n
\n

Apart from playing Augusta, other great memories include shooting a 74 at Ruddington Grange Golf Club in Nottingham.<\/p>\n

\n
\n

What\u2019s your favourite golf course in the UK<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n
\n
\n
\n

That would be the Queens Course at Gleneagles, my uncle had an apartment next to resort and while I was at university, I did a summer season there… and as a staff member we got to play the courses through twilight rounds, so the Queens Course is where I learnt to play the game and it\u2019s one of the prettiest courses in the UK.<\/p>\n

\n
\n
\n
\n

I have a give Sunningdale<\/a> Old a mention too.<\/p>\n

\n
\n

What\u2019s the best hotel you\u2019ve ever stayed in<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n
\n
\n
\n

The Emirates Palace in Abu Dhabi, I had a private butler service, sound proofed rooms, so you couldn\u2019t hear any noise from the outside, everything about the hotel was exceptional.<\/p>\n

\n
\n
\n
\n

It was through a work-based event working on the Gary Player invitational.<\/p>\n

What’s your favourite city in the world<\/strong><\/p>\n

That has to be New York<\/a>, I love the vibe and energy, I think it feels more intimate than London, I stayed with family and friends in Long Island and took myself off into New York for the day, that was my\u00a0 first proper time travelling on my own.<\/p>\n

I love The High Line, which is an elevated freight rail line which was transformed into a public park. I\u2019ve been pre and post 9\/11 and seen both the Twin Towers and Ground Zero. The whole city has so many cool areas.<\/p>\n

\n
\n
\n
\n

Hosting a Nike event with Rory and Tiger was also memorable, it was at night at Liberty National GC and seeing Manhattan lit up in the distance will long live in the memory.<\/p>\n

\n
\n
\n
\n

Most memorable meal<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n
\n
\n
\n

Heston Blumenthal\u2019s The Fat Duck in Bray, it was a bit out there for me but very memorable, the whole meal was pure theatre, taking the lids of the glass bowls and seeing the smoke raising and wearing headphones as you eat, you hear chatter and laughter, waves crashing and seagulls squawking while you\u2018re eating a seafood course.<\/p>\n

My favourite course was the chocolate fondant, that was pure heaven. I would go back there for this dessert alone.<\/p>\n

\n
\n
\n
\n

My top travel tip<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n
\n
\n
\n

Is travelling light, I\u2019ve also been so bad at packing, I used to use only a third of the clothes I took on trips, I now only use the cabin suitcase, but it\u2019s taken me years to realise this.<\/p>\n

Remember you can also pick up shampoo and toiletries when you get to your destination.<\/p>\n
