60 Seconds With

Paul Hubbard

Where were you born and where did you grow up ?

Born in Fairlie.  There was a maternity hospital there back then.  It then became an old people's home and is now for sale - which is a real shame.

Who is your favourite golfer and why ?

Tyrell Hatton.  His personal commentary is classic ( and relatable )

Speight's or Emerson's

Speight's Ultra

Best advice you've ever been given ?

When you play a sport, don't build up a situation within the game as being more important than it is.  With golf, you would be surprised how few people care how you played and even less will remember tomorrow.

If I was Prime Minister I would .....

Lower income tax and reduce compliance red tape.

Carisbrook or Forsyth Barr

Carisbrook.  I still remember the days when after a game at Carisbrook, if you were in a box, how we would make our way around all the other boxes.

One thing people might not know about you

I was head boy for two years at school.

If I could play one golf course I would play at ...

Sounds weird but probably my home town course in Fairlie - as much for the company and entertainment the locals provide.

If you met yourself as a 20 year old what advice would you give yourself ?

Live a little before having kids.  I would have liked to have travelled more but having kids kind of limited that for us and I am hoping to do more as we get older.
