Roots is back, with eight-time DP World Tour winner and major champion Paul Lawrie as he returns home to Kemnay, Aberdeenshire.

The mini-documentary series presented by Velocity Global charts the stories of different stars of the game of golf and the unique environments in which they grew up, as we travel to Scotland to visit Paul Lawrie's first golf club, his Golf Centre as he looks to give back to the game, and speak to the people who know this Open Champion best.

In this episode, Paul takes us through his happy childhood just outside Aberdeen and how he enjoyed playing football before the taxi drivers who worked for his father got him into golf, and made him some pocket money at the same time. He takes us back to his first golf club where he honed his famous short game and the club where he was spotted by the professional and invited to join the club staff and turn professional while still in possession of a five handicap.

Those who knew and know him talk of his work ethic and determination to succeed and how his first sponsor gave him his nickname 'Chippie', still remains his friend to this day and accompanied him to Augusta National. His love of his home town shines through as he visits Pittodrie, home of his beloved Aberdeen FC, where he paraded the Claret Jug after his famous Open Championship win in 1999.

His dramatic play-off victory at Carnoustie came under the tutorship of coach Adam Hunter, and Lawrie opens up about his emotions following his great friend's sad passing from leukaemia at the age of 48 in 2011.

Family man Paul also talks about wife Marian and their work with the Paul Lawrie Foundation and Paul Lawrie Golf Centre, and his pride in sons Michael and Craig.
