ABOUT ME

Hi, I’m Matt Middleton, a WR4GD golfer with one goal: become World No.1 in disability golf by April 2028.

In February 2026, I was diagnosed with autism. That diagnosis opened a completely unexpected door into disability golf — and what started as an opportunity to compete has become a serious attempt to see just how far I can go.

Since beginning the journey, I've entered the WR4GD, competed in disability golf events, won tournaments and started climbing the world ranking.

Now I'm building the tournament schedule, coaching team and performance programme needed to keep that progress going.

THE JOURNEY SO FAR

INTERESTED IN PARTNERING WITH THE JOURNEY?

I'm also looking to work with businesses and brands that would like to support the Road to World No.1. Sponsorship and partnership information is available through my Linktree, alongside my social channels and performance team.

WHAT YOUR SUPPORT HAS ALREADY HELPED ME ACHIEVE

When I launched this fundraiser, the Road to World No.1 was an ambition.

Since then, I've gained my classification, entered the WR4GD, competed in disability golf tournaments, won an event and begun climbing the world ranking.

The support is already making a difference.

The next stage is about turning that early progress into sustained improvement and competing in the events that can take me further up the ranking.
