Zach Baldwin Bask...Personal Statement
I am a lifelong athlete but have only played golf for 3 and a half years. At 16 years old, my current driving distance exceeds 290 yards, my driver swing speed is >115 mph, and my current handicap is +1.6. Over the last three years, my 9-hole high school scoring average has improved by 18 strokes from my freshman year to my junior year. In fact, I did not qualify for districts my freshman year, but qualified for districts and regionals my sophomore year, and for state my junior and senior year. I look forward to continuing this trend throughout my senior year and collegiate career. I also play varsity basketball which has made me a better all around athlete, contributed to my leg strength, and given me invaluable team experience. I look forward to being part of your collegiate team. I also would like to note that I am taking a gap year and I am looking for a college that I can join for 2022!

Events
- Camp/Event
- Lake Buena Vista Junior Open HJGT
- 8/28/21 to 8/29/21
- I shot 74-74 in rainy and muddy conditions. Ball striking was not quite there but my short game was which helped me salvage respectable scores. Finished t2/22. https://tournaments.hjgt.org/Scoreboard?TournamentID=17011
- Camp/Event
- Central Florida Summer Junior Open
- 8/14/21 to 8/15/21
- I shot 75-75 for 4th place out of 18. Putter let me down this week. I felt like I hit the ball and just missed too many putts. Not my best, but conditions were very windy.
- Camp/Event
- FSGA Junior Amateur Match Play
- 7/19/21 to 7/22/21
- I shot 75-75 on that first two days of stroke play on a very tricky course for t-15 out of 78 (field was very strong). Made it on to match play where I lost in the first round where I putted very poorly and lost 3&2.
- Camp/Event
- High school match vs. Trinity Catholic
- I shot 68 (-4) and finished first out of 12
- Camp/Event
- MFJGT Stone Creek Open
- I shot 73 and won out of a field of 13. I played pretty well and 73 was respectable considering how windy it was and it felt nice to get a win.

- I shot 73 for solo second out of 37 in our district tournament to help lead my team to regionals https://fhsaa.com/documents/2020/10/19//2020_boys_districtresults_1AD5.pdf?id=337
