Tyler Willner - Tim's Golf Tips
Born and raised in Saskatchewan. My family and I moved to Grande Prairie when I was 16. I attended Grant MacEwan University for the Golf Management Program. Started playing golf when I was 9, won my first tournament when I was 18. Started teaching special Olympics golf at the age of 16 and this is where I started to develop my passion for helping people get better at golf. I’ve had the privilege of teaching several juniors that have gone on to earn golf scholarships across Canada and the United States. I’ve also had the privilege of working at some great golf courses across Alberta including Barrhead Golf Club, Cougar Creek Golf Resort, Banff Springs, Sturgeon Valley and Royal Mayfair. I joined Lakeside Golf Club as their Head Golf Professional in 2019.
