There Are no Shortcuts
Gonzalo Sanchez is among the most elite golf trainers with the highest cercaon from the global
golf academy Stack and Tilt. As a former professional European Alps Tour player and expert in
golf management, he has extensive experience with presgious resorts such as TPC Sawgrass
in Florida, Real Club Valderrama, and the central PGA Tour venue – host of THE PLAYERS
CHAMPIONSHIP. Mr. Sanchez is a lecturer at Les Roches University, leads the San Roque Golf
Club academy in Spain, and is currently in his second year as head coach at Prosper Golf Academy
in Prosper Golf Resort Čeladná. In this interview we spoke to him about his philosophy as a coach,
the development of golf as a sport and the most common mistakes golfers at any skill level make.
Gonzalo, could you tell us about your professional
journey and how it led you
to the Prosper Golf Resort in Čeladná?
For 15 years I have been studying by attending
the seminars and congresses all around the world
listening to people and coaches who are better than
me. Most importantly however, I have developed
a very important skill. And that is listening to my
students and teaching them in a way that is easy for
them to understand. Everyone has their own unique
perspective. Some people like to be coached with
very specific, technical terminology, while others
are more visual learners. That is one of my strengths.
I can identify what someone needs within the first few
minutes of training and I can adapt my teaching style to
those specifications.
The Stack and Tilt Academy has not operated in the
Czech Republic before, and Čeladná is now becoming
the first location in Central Europe to adopt its
standards. Why did you decide to bring this globally
recognised methodology here? What opportunities do
you see for its development in this region?
Czech golf has lots of potential as well as a rich history.
The sport is currently seeing a growth spurt, which
means that now is the ideal time to invest into it. A well
functioning system and a global network of coaches
can help the Czech golf community understand the
Stack and Tilt system, truly making it their own, which
will be very beneficial.
