Personal Statement
Ever since I learned and played the game, I have developed a love for golfing and a work ethic hard to compare to a majority of the young adults today looking to continue their golf career at the collegiate level. I started playing competitive golf as of last year, and I hope to continue this for many years to come. I have drastically improved my scores from the beginning, and I am still developing to become a low scoring golfer by the day. I would be an excellent fit for a team because of my easy-going, jovial demeanor, impeccable work ethic, and the want to convey my leadership skills through helping other players meet their upmost potential. I help those around me, lead a group with class, and am easily coachable. From an academics and character perspective, I am in all honors classes at a prestige high school, and still attain a near 4.0 GPA. To add, I am a laid-back, determined, and optimistic kid who would love to take his game one more stop and to highlight my talent on a collegiate stage.
