Scotland's Scott Jamieson
Scotland's Richie Ramsay and Scott Jamieson provided the nation's leading male amateurs with an insight into what it takes to reach the higher echelons of The European Tour.
The pair took time out from their quests for success at the Dubai World Championship to sit down with members of the men's national squad during their warm weather winter training trip to Abu Dhabi.
Paul Shields, Scott Crichton, Daniel Kay, Fraser McKenna, Conor O'Neil and Brian Soutar have moved into the final days of their four-week training at Yas Links Golf Club.
While former Open champion Paul Lawrie pocketed a cheque for over £500,000 following his runners-up finish behind Alvaro Quiros in Dubai, Ramsay and Jamieson were happy to share their tips for the top with the aspiring amateurs.
Twenty-year-old Shields, said: "We received fantastic advice from Richie and Scott.
Richie spoke about his journey from amateur to professional and playing golf
to your strengths and the team around him.
"It was very interesting, beneficial and good to hear from somebody that has achieved what we are all trying to achieve."

You're not learning golf since you're not a bengnier. You have terrible habits and go from tip to tip like a frog leaping from pad to pad in a pond. The problem with golf is the word Theory . That being said: You have to draw a line in the sand. You must make a choice as to which way you want to go. The best amateurs and the professionals have found a way to get into the slot but for 98% of the golfing public the slot is lost since they don't know everywhere it is and no tip will place you in its management. There are choices. There are two vital swing styles. Inside out and outside in. There are only two but both are intricate by body movement and wrist break. All one needs to do is watch the golf ball hitting machine called Iron Byron. There is no wrist break or body dancing. Iron Byron is the perfection of holding the wrists in a locked position and swing the arms around an anchored body then down and through the impact area. Swing inside out is the best swing method but most swing inside out even though they reckon they’re doing the opposite. You can tell inside out by looking at the right elbow on the backswing. When it’s tucked into the body at the top of the backswing then that’s Inside out. Once the right arm raises into the air it becomes outside in. Inside out is a circle everywhere outside in is a lift.There are no tips for you since you're not a bengnier. You have to make a choice to study your body, how it moves and works. There is only one man who devised a golf swing that everyone can play assuming one is in average condition. He was around before Byron Nelson. His name is Joe Norwood. He's been gone for 20 years but he educated golf for 80 years. Presume teaching for 80 years. Who has educated for more than 80 years. The information to find out about his swing is below. Joe Norwood did not tell you what to do he educated you how to do it. Come on over and give it a try. His swing is active and well. It truly is One Swing For All.
