Ramsay McMaster - One of the World’s Leading Golf Specific Physiotherapists

Ramsay's love for the game of golf originated from the "home of golf" Scotland where he grew up. His passion for the game was easily identified at an early age when he played 81 holes in one day at his home club of Bridge of Allan at the age of 14 years. This nine-hole course had the unique position of being on the side of a Scottish mountain and it was humorously stated that "you needed one leg shorter than the other to play it."
Ramsay plays as an 'A' grade golfer and has won Victoria’s largest Pro-Am at Portsea Golf Club, in between being a full time golf physical therapist and fitness consultant.
