Personal Statement

Started playing about 5 years ago but, recently in last two years started to take it seriously. In July of 2022 I broke 90 for the first time at HS golf then later that season I broke 80 for first time and been in the 70’s ever since. More recently in Sept of 2023 I broke par for the first time. All in tournament rounds. Iam improving rapidly and I believe iam only going to get better. 7 months ago had my first two rounds in the 70’s for a two day tournament at around 6,600-700yds. Been working everyday at it since. I willing to do whatever it takes to win.
