All change at Duddingston Golf Club who have appointed a new professional and a new course manager.
Taking over from, respectively, Stuart Wilson and John Guthrie, who are moving to new projects, are David MacMullen and Dougie Melville.
David MacMullen is particularly far travelled and joins from JW Marriot Golf Club, Image City, Cairo. Before that he was attached to the St Sofia club in Bulgaria where he was also a national coach.
Egypt figures large on David’s CV having also enjoyed spells at the New Giza golf club and also Allegria GC.
Nearer home he was worked as golf director at Spey Valley GC in Aviemore and also served at Shotts GC.
By contrast Dougie Melville has spent his career in Scotland including 10 years at Falkirk GC and a similar period at Silverknowes GC.
Dougie’s apprenticeship was served in the capital at Swanston GC.
