Portrait of golf instructor David Entwistle: since a Covid illness, the Englishman from Manchester has been unable to move his legs – doctors have found no diagnosis so far. He keeps teaching regardless: a good 40 classes a week at the Moorfleet facility, where he has taught since 2007. "I can teach just as well sitting down here as standing up," says Entwistle – supported by the video cameras and monitors of the modern driving range.
