Lee will continue to be an integral part of our coaching team \u2013 both from the club, and at his home.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Lee said he had been planning to undertake some renos at his home, so the decision was made to incorporate his own business in those plans.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cMaking this move was designed to future-proof my career, and my business,\u201d he revealed.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThe standalone building is seven metres by nine metres, and the TrackMan simulator screen is 5 \u00bd metres by 3 \u00bd metres. And not only is it big, and state-of-the-art but, significantly, it is weather proof.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI have also established a club assessment area where a player\u2019s current equipment can be tested and adjusted if required, which is something I have a passion for and a skill I can now offer at home, as well as at the club.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Lee was the first Australian to win the US Southern Amateur and still remains one of only two Australians to win that event in its 107-year history. The other was Michael Sim.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He was also a former winner of the Queensland Men\u2019s Amateur Championship, the Men\u2019s Tasmanian Open and the Riversdale Cup, which is the second-oldest amateur golf tournament in Australia<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After playing on the PGA Tour of Australasia and the Asian Tour in the late 1990s, Lee started his traineeship at BGC under Head Professional Murray Lott in 2004, and two years later was named Queensland PGA Trainee of the Year. The same year he was awarded the prestigious Australian PGA Trainee of the Year Award.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The first two weeks of September Lee will spend in Europe, coaching Queensland Pro Maverick Antcliff as he prepares for the BMW PGA Championship at Wentworth in England, and the Italian Open in Rome.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Lee\u2019s contact details are mobile: 0419 646 909; email: <a href=\"mailto:lee@leeeagletongolf.com.au\">lee@leeeagletongolf.com.au<\/a> \u2013 <strong>TONY DURKIN<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He will still be seen plying his trade at The Brisbane Golf Club\u2019s practise facilities two and a half days a week, but the teaching career of popular PGA Professional Lee Eagleton has taken a significant diversion.\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The former Australian PGA Trainee of the&#8230;<\/p>\n<p> <a class=\"read_more_link \" href=\"https:\/\/brisbane.miclub.com.au\/cms\/2022\/08\/lee-swings-in-some-changes\/\"> Read More&nbsp;&raquo;<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1395,"featured_media":22121,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[1,38],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-22120","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-latest-news","category-news"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.9 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Lee swings in some changes - The Brisbane Golf Club<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"noindex, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Lee swings in some changes - The Brisbane Golf Club\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"He will still be seen plying his trade at The Brisbane Golf Club\u2019s practise facilities two and a half days a week, but the teaching career of popular PGA Professional Lee Eagleton has taken a significant diversion.
