Dale Gray
A native of Sydney, Australia, Dale started his PGA Apprenticeship at Kogarah Golf Club in Sydney. His desire to teach and train with the best led him to Hank Haney, one of the premier teachers in the game of golf and former coach to Tiger Woods. Dale studied under Hank for more than 10 years during which he began to incorporate his own teaching style into the strong foundation from Hank.
In 2006, Dale joined the teaching staff at Chelsea Piers Golf Academy in Manhattan and was named Director of Instruction for the Academy in 2008. During his 8 years at Chelsea Piers, Dale grew the instruction program and built a successful Junior Program, which survives today with focused instruction for young adults, who want to play at a competitive, college and professional level.
Throughout his 21 year career, Dale has steadily built a reputation as a versatile instructor to both men and women students at all levels, from pure beginners to club players to NCAA college players to touring professionals. Notable past students included 11-time PGA Tour winner David Frost; two-time Australian Open Champion Robert Allenby; and Players Championship winner Tim Clark. He’s also been a guest instructor on Golf Channel's “The Haney Project” and been published in Men’s Journal magazine.
