Brian lives in Cheshire and when not on the golf course spends much of his time working on various ranking lists, particularly in GB&I and Continental Europe. He is hanging on by his fingertips to a handicap of 7. He has played more than 1,500 golf courses in over 30 countries, including the current Top 100 of Britain and Ireland and the English Top 100 (click here to read the story). His favourites include Cypress Point, Royal County Down, San Francisco, Morfontaine, Royal Dornoch, Swinley Forest and California Club but he keeps changing his mind.

Brian now divides his time between top100golfcourses.com and The Golf Society of Great Britain where he fills the role of Secretary. Brian is also a member of the International Golf Travel Writers Association.
