After a further ten years, he changed to teaching information technology, and in 2000, he found himself teaching this subject in Saudi Arabia for a further ten years. After a short retirement, he was tempted back to teaching, this time in Xi’an, China.
He has always been a practicing sportsman, firstly football and cricket, and later squash, encouraging his two sons who also took up the game and played professionally for a short period. He has been an addictive runner for many years, and while in Riyadh, joined the running club there. He also tried his hand at triathlon. However, golf came to play a major part in his life after one fateful but awful round in 1972 at the now overgrown Coral Harbour Golf and Country Club in Nassau, Bahamas.
Mr Hynes has been happily married for over forty bloody years and has two married sons and five adorable grandchildren.
His teaching has provided more success than his golf, but after playing in many places around the world for forty-one years, he is still hopeful. He now lives and works with his wife in Xi’an, China.view less
