Ana Dawson and Tom Gandy starting 2024 campaigns
The manager for golfers Ana Dawson and Tom Gandy has called for more support from the Manx community.
Ana turned professional last year - a difficult first season for the 22-year-old as she had to go back to the qualifying school due to not gaining enough points to enter the major tours.
However the Island-born sportswoman is currently in the United Arab Emirates, undergoing warm weather training, before going off to compete in Kenya in two weeks' time.
Tom also had a tough 2023 season as his playing category meant he did not know where he would be playing until the very next day; the Manxman's first tournament will begin in March in the UAE.
