Can Paul Waring finally break through and claim his second DP World Tour victory this season?

From the get-go, Paul Waring was expected to be a brilliant golfer. The 39-year-old won the English Amateur in 2005, and when he made his debut on the Challenge Tour after turning pro in 2007, he started getting into the winner’s circle quite easily. However, from there onwards, it became difficult for Waring to follow through with the same success as during his amateur days.

But he still pulled through and made his way to the European Tour and after twelve years, he clinched his maiden victory at the 2018 Nordea Masters. As of the current season, Waring is chasing his second victory on the DP World Tour. And as he makes himself a known face in the golf world, a common question is where is he from? Given his name, Waring comes from England and was born in Birkenhead, a small town in the Wirral Peninsula, on February 2nd, 1985.

The 1-time DP World Tour winner comes from a sporting family. His mother, Gill Waring used to be a swimmer and represented England. While more about his family is hidden, he also has a cousin who was a professional tennis star. As an athletic person, it surely has been Waring’s dream to be the next big golfer but that goal has still not been fulfilled.

However, he tried every season to push his limits and become a better golfer than he was a week before. Regardless, while his golf mission is underway, Waring also has some other passion in life than just being a golfer.

What else did Paul Waring do in his life?

Waring’s personal life has always been shrouded in mystery as the 39-year-old pro rarely shares anything about it. But the 1-time DP World Tour player once revealed that he is actually married. As a pure golf enthusiast, Waring got married to the love of his wife in December 2014 in St. Andrews, the Home of Golf. Since then, the duo have been together, making extremely rare appearances on X account.

Have an interesting take?

Despite his love and passion for golf, Waring has an ongoing joke about the sport. Since it is such a difficult sport to conquer and for Waring especially, winning has been difficult, annually he used to post on Twitter, “I hate golf.” But in reality, he only wanted to win an event. Aside from playing golf, the 39-year-old pro has many other interests as well. One is his love for music as he used to be a DJ, however, couldn’t pursue it with golf.

He also used to wakeboard but left it because the sport could injure him badly. After being seriously injured two times in 2011 and 2015, Waring didn’t want another injury to halt his career. However, one passion that he still follows to this day is being a car nerd. Waring once said, “I am a big car nut. It is one of my real passions outside golf. I love the engineering side.” Courtesy of that he has bought a Porsche Cayman R and keeps working on it from time to time. So, do you think the Englishman is going to achieve his second victory this season? Let us know below.
