Morocco: A new generation of golfers emerges among poor

In Morocco, golf courses have an excellent reputation and draw in hundreds of thousands of tourists each year - but the locals are beginning to make their mark.

In the city of Essaouira, local youngsters, often underprivileged, have taken up the sport in recent years.
A new generation of golfers is emerging, and any patch of barren land becomes a place to play and practice.
