BACKGROUND
At the age of 15, Kun Yang was one of the youngest players to be introduced into the national team of Singapore in 2003. During his stint representing Singapore, he enjoyed multiple successes on the local and international circuits as a junior and amateur.
Being amongst one of the youngest to turn professional amongst his peers, Kun Yang based himself in Thailand to train and compete amongst the best in the region. He has competed on the Asian Tour, China Tour, Thailand Tour as well as in the local SPGA circuit.
His thirst for gaining more tools in his coaching toolbox led him to travel for seminars and meeting top coaches in the industry.
These top coaches include 2016 PGA Teacher of the year, Mike Adams, as well as the founders of VISION54, Pia Nilsson and Lynn Marriot, former coaches of Annika Sorenstam and current coaches to the Jutanugarn sisters.
Kun Yang’s coaching highlight came in 2018 when he was appointed as the National coach of Singapore,
the youngest coach to have achieved this appointment.

Coach Kun Yang has really helped develop me into the player I am today. I first started working with him since September 2015. Since then, we have worked on fitting me to my natural movements, wedge play and more. By utilising my natural movements, I was able to hit more consistent shots out on the course. As a fairly long hitter, wedge play is extremely important in order to score so it was one of the first things we worked on.
By customising a wedge challenge for me on his Trackman, I am able to sharpen my distance control on my wedges on the range. Since then, my confidence with my wedges has increased and I am able to take advantage of my length.
Coach Kun Yang is an extremely patient coach, he would take time to help me look at my swing and give me constant feedback on how to get better. I am really thankful for Coach Kun Yang for the things he has done, if not, I would not have been able to achieve the things i have achieved to this day.
