A genial and friendly white-haired Spaniard, Carlos Álvarez Rodero has the look perhaps of a typical golf traveller when we meet him in Portugal. However, though his story of how he arrived in golf is far from typical, what is possibly less surprising is how much the game has given this man who overcame severe injury and trauma.
A keen motorcyclist, when he was 32 years-old and heading to work he collided head-on with a car. The damage was severe.
Carlos’s life changed again in a highly positive way when he discovered golf.
He tells us: “I discovered something that has excited me and offered me great personal growth, giving me huge confidence in myself, boosting my wellbeing and self-worth, while meeting a fine group of people who helped me by sharing their experiences.
“It is important we all try to encourage more individuals with a disability to try this fantastic game.”
