HER brother is a star on the golf course but he’s perhaps more famous in America than in his homeland.
For Diane Knox it’s the opposite, given she’s a household name in Scotland.
She left these shores in 2018 to join her sibling in the States and since then hasn’t looked back as she embarked on a new TV career after years working in radio.
Diane Knox, known as ‘Knoxy’ to fans, is a former Clyde One DJ and presenter who was a regular on the station from 2010-2016 and she gained national prominence as host of the Scotland-wide show from February to August of that year.
She also presented the drivetime show on Moray Firth Radio for six years from 2004-2010, which was her first role behind the mic.
The 41-year-old has also covered golf for the BBC, working at The Open in 2017 and 2018.
Since embarking on a new life in the USA, Knoxy has continued to work in the media with a focus on golf.
She has been a cover presenter for the PGA Tour doing various jobs such as presenting and voice-overs.
Alongside her work for the tour were two other golf/media roles, one with Foresight Sports as a content producer and another as presenter and podcast host for Secret Golf.
Now she’s set for another change, switching up her swing again and venturing into the extravagant world of real estate in the state of Florida.
She wrote: “New week, new month, new year, new career.
“Time to build the next foundation in my life, and for my family.
“If you’re buying or selling in Florida, please get in touch or pass my details to anyone who is.
“All you golf lovers, come to Ponte Vedra/Jacksonville!
“I’m still going to be working in golf/content, and have some really cool projects coming up soon. I’ll keep you in the loop.”
Knoxy’s new job as a realtor is as the face of United Real Estate, who operate in the city of Jacksonville in the Sunshine State.
It’s a long way from the city of Inverness where she and younger brother Russell originally hail from.
Properties range from $40,000 to almost $3m and include lavish suburban houses and large plots of land.
Rusell Knox is a seven-time winner as a professional golfer, with his most notable winning coming in the 2015 WGC-HSBC Champions in China.
The victory was Knox’s FIRST on the PGA Tour and came as a shock – as did the $1.4m prize money.
His other tour success came the following year in the Travelers Championship, another of the elite PGA events.
He waited two years for another pro win and his next was to come on the European Tour (now the DP World Tour) at the Irish Open.
Knox has never played in a Ryder Cup despite his best form coming in the run-up to the 2016 event at Hazeltine, because he wasn’t a full member of the European Tour.
He’s now ranked 361st in the world and has dropped down to the Korn Ferry Tour (the division below the PGA Tour) in a bid to return to form.
While fellow Scots Robert MacIntyre and Martin Laird tee it up in the WM Phoenix Open, Knox will compete at the Colombia Championship this weekend.
