Fergus Bisset

Contributing Editor

Fergus is a golf obsessive and 3-handicapper.

Growing up in the North East of Scotland, golf runs through his veins and it was concentrated by his time at St Andrews university. He has worked for Golf Monthly since 2004 and has written two books on the game; “Great Golf Debates” together with Jezz Ellwood of Golf Monthly and “The Ultimate Golf Book” together with Neil Tappin (also of Golf Monthly)…

Fergus once shanked a ball from just over Granny Clark’s Wynd on the 18th of the Old Course that struck the St Andrews Golf Club and rebounded into the Valley of Sin, from where he saved par. Who says there’s no golfing god?
