Barry Rhodes has spent most of his career in senior sales, marketing and management roles within the information, communications and technology (ICT) sector in Ireland. He is an enthusiastic, high handicap golfer who developed an interest, then a fascination, and now an obsession with the Rules of Golf. He is resident in Dublin, where he is an active member of Milltown Golf Club. Barry’s relationship with the Rules began in 2000 with his participation in the inter-club Rules of Golf quiz competitions, organised by the Royal & Ancient for Golf Clubs in Great Britain and Ireland. This progressed to him writing articles, running quizzes, and delivering presentations on the Rules at various Golf Clubs and corporate functions. He writes a weekly web blog, containing interesting content for anyone who wishes to improve their knowledge and understanding of the Rules of Golf, at www.barryrhodes.com and has another web site www.RhodesRulesSchool, which is an indispensable resource for anyone who wishes to improve their knowledge and understanding of the Rules of Golf. In 2009 his first book ’999 Questions on the Rules of Golf’ was published. It has been regularly updated for the amendments to the Rules and Decisions on the Rules, including those for January 2016, and is now available as an eBook (eReaders, tablets and smart phones), either direct from the author, or through the Amazon book store. A paperback copy is also available from Amazon. Barry answers all questions on the Rules of Golf and is a guest contributor on various golfing web sites around the world. In March 2008, Barry became the first person to achieve a 100% correct mark on the public Advanced Rules of Golf Course examination, run by the Professional Golfers Association (PGA) in their headquarters at The Belfry, West Midlands, UK. In April 2015 Barry received a personal invitation to attend the R&A’s Level 3, Tournament Administrators and Referees School, which was held in Ireland for the first time, accommodated by Athlone GC and Hodson Bay Hotel.
