In this week’s episode, we sit down with Steven Quinlan, a PGA Professional with over 11 years’ experience, an accomplished pro golfer, and a dedicated PGA coach. Steven teaches at Newlands Golf Club and Celbridge Golf Range, with an impressive record of 4 Irish Region Wins and 51 PGA Top Tens in Ireland.
Steven’s journey is one of true passion and perseverance. From picking up a golf club at 16 and joining a local pub golf society—just for the chance to get out of school once a month—to becoming one of the youngest players on his team and earning early wins, his love for the game never faded.
After the financial crash in 2009 left him without a job, Steven took a new direction—completing a course in sales, service, and motor mechanics while delivering car parts and working behind a trade counter. But watching friends play golf multiple times a week reignited his drive to make golf his career.
That determination led him to study Professional Golf Studies, securing an assistant pro role at Lucan Golf Club. There, he learned the business of golf—sales, fitting, coaching—and was mentored by experienced professionals, honing his skills both as a player and a coach.
Today, Steven combines experience, technology, and a deep understanding of the game to help golfers of all levels improve their swing, strategy, and confidence.
