It was a treat for our latest EDGA podcast to meet Norwegian golfer Mette Havnaas.
Mette hears when she plays a good shot, she doesn’t see it. ‘Top notch’ is how she describes the sound when a putt has fallen to the bottom of the cup.
It takes courage for someone who has lost their sight as an adult to learn a completely new sport as Mette has done, and then to travel to different European venues to play in tournaments.
Central to her giving this interview Mette wanted to make other people with visual impairment aware that golf can be a game for them. At ‘G4D’ (golf for the disabled) events and ‘regular’ competitions, Mette is now a standard bearer in this area. We said hello to Mette, and her guide/companion on the course and husband, Birger, on the Algarve in Portugal when she was playing in the second of her first two EDGA tournaments outside of her home country.
Enjoy Mette’s fascinating story here.
