This Golfing Life - Jigger Thompson
Jun 11, 20261 min read

Standing at 6'9", Jigger Thompson is the tallest tour pro in world golf. He first hit the headlines at the 2021 Open Championship, when he made a second round hole-in-one on the 16th hole, helping him make the cut on his major debut.

He overcame childhood leukaemia to reach the DP World Tour, and has recently survived another battle with the disease, and now has his sights set on a return to top-flight golf.

 

This is an inspiring story of faith, perseverance, and a remarkable love for golf,. You can join Jigger at the 2026 Mini Masters in aid of Leukaemia UK on Friday 26 June at Sunningdale Heath - find more details at MiniMastersGolf.co.uk and in the podcast episode.
