I recently received a phone call from my parents asking why I hadn’t recommended to them the idea of getting a VPN. My uncle was perplexed when they told him they didn’t have one and as a man who works in tech, he began listing the benefits.
A VPN gives you enhanced security whilst browsing the web, encrypts your data from third parties, blocks your IP address so you can access geo-blocked content whilst traveling and gives you extra peace of mind whilst making online transactions. Did I miss anything?
If you’re a sports nerd like me, a VPN is a must. I’ve used ExpressVPN for over a year now and it has allowed to watch any sport I want, anywhere I’ve been. This is especially valuable for me as someone who watches far, far too many sports.
This month alone I’ll be watching the Valspar Championship this weekend, the chaos of the NCAA College Basketball Tournament as well as weekly Premier League and Champions League soccer action. With a trip abroad in my calendar for a few weeks time, I know my laptop will always be prepped for live sports action, no matter where I am.
Given I write for Golf Monthly, it’s worth my time pointing out the dates for the biggest events the sport has to offer in 2026, just so you can plan ahead.

So whether you want a VPN to watch sport and/or movies abroad, you want extra security or simply think this deal is too good to pass up, we advise you to move as quick as you can to secure it – this deal ENDS at the end of the day on Thursday 19 March.
