Jai was diagnosed with multiple myeloma, a type of blood cancer, in 2023. Last year he participated in our Longest Day Golf Challenge to help support others affected by cancer and raised an incredible £10,000 with his team.
This year, he was given the opportunity to visit the PING factory to learn how the clubs are made and receive a club fitting at their European Fitting Centre at Thonock Park.
As part of our collaboration with PING, they are giving you the opportunity to also win this amazing experience when you sign up to take part in our 36, 72, or 100-hole challenge. Find out more about the challenge here - longestdaygolf.macmillan.org.uk/
