Andrew “Beef” Johnston made a promise after his maiden European Tour victory at the Spanish Open last week that went something like this:
“I CAN’T WAIT TO GET BACK TO NORTH MID AND GET HAMMERED. SEE MY MUM AND BROTHER, SPEND TIME WITH THEM AND JUST CELEBRATE.”

Beef is fast becoming a legend on Tour thanks to his carefree attitude and animated celebrations. It was no surprise to see him put away some drinks when he returned to north London. This all seems very reminiscent of Danny Willett, the Masters champion partied so hard after his win the police were called because of a noise complaint. English golf continues to go from strength to strength and these boys know how to enjoy it.
Here’s Andrew keeping his word…

We love this! Screw the sponsors and screw the squeaky clean image. Give us guys enjoying their success like human beings every day of the week. And yes, there is always a place for chanting in golf a la Danny Willett.
