He’s also a PGA Professional at Quest Golf Academy at Prairie Sports Village in Lancashire, (North West) England. As part of the agreement, Finch will work with GolfWRX Editors to create content specifically tailored to GolfWRX Readers.

“Pete is a wonderful fit for GolfWRX, and we’re very excited to work with him,” said Zak Kozuchowski, GolfWRX Editor-in-Chief. “His style is light and fun, and it’s paired with a serious knowledge and understanding of the game. We think he’s going to help our readers play better golf and enjoy the game more.”

    Love Peter Finch. Nicest swing out of all of these guys. Very Ernie Els-ish.

    Pete will be a welcome addition to the already great line-up of contributors on here. I have been a subscriber of his for about 3 years or so and have always found his vlogs entertaining and informative.
    Perhaps not everyone’s cup of tea (based on some replies here) but to each their own. Watching isn’t mandatory after all. Fortunately I am pretty sure Pete isn’t losing any sleep over a few members here who don’t like him. Comes with the territory of being famous I guess.

    Great , 1 less WRX article I need to read……another UK based “look at me ” style of useless infortainment, appealing to the mindless reality TV crowd. Oh what’s Peter moaning about today, as usual…..playing the role of Rick Sheils shadow…..

    Not surprising as Pete was once an aspiring young journalist. He decided he preferred coaching golf. I always figured he would find a way to combine the two.

    I prefer Peter Finch over Rick Shiels. He is my type of no BS guy, articulate and I trust he knows what he is talking about. However, seems strange that there is such dominance of English/British youtube golf ‘gurus’ on an American forum. Guys, you better start hiring your country fellows – should be no problem to find good folk like GGSwingTips or Martin Chuck (Mr Tour Striker).

      “no BS guy” huh!!?! He cackles and sniggers all through the vids, talks silly nonsensical drivel half the time. Copies Ricks direction and has been copying GolfWRX for ages!

      Agree about getting in more Americans though.

      The MMG guys are already in the fold along with Shiels, and Crossfield. Watch them every opportunity I can. Now add Chris Ryan and Dan Whittaker too.

    Great respect for all the youtube golfers like Finch, Shiels and Crossfield etc. It was new and refreshing and still is. But joining established media brands like golfwrx or golf magazines gets these guys down to a more boring level. Seriously who needs another golf writer?!? Keep up the good work guys!

    Congrats Peter

GolfWRX is on site for the second major of 2026: The PGA Championship from Aronimink in Newtown Square, Pennsylvania.

The tournament’s location, just outside Philadelphia, and its status as a major championship mean GolfWRXers are in for a treat: WITBs from a strong field, custom gear celebrating the PGA Championship, and the rich culture of the City of Brotherly Love — we have noted a relative absence of cheesesteak-themed items thus far this week, but most of the rest of the usual suspects are well represented.
