Personal Statement

Hello my name is Ashlyn Johnson. I am a senior at Hillsdale High School in San Mateo, CA. I have been playing golf for 6 years. I am also deaf, I was born that way and today I wear bilateral cochlear implants. Meaning with my cochlear implants on I can hear almost as well as any other person, but without them on, I cannot hear anything. I am a very good sleeper, LOL. I love all sports and played softball and flag football when I was younger. Now I play basketball and golf. My dad started taking me and my sisters golfing when we were young and I have grown to love the game. I would say my strengths are my ball striking, chipping and passion to get better. I need to improve on course management and managing my passion, sometimes I get a little fired up on the course. I want to play college golf and one day perhaps play professionally.

I was selected to compete for Team USA in the 2020 World Deaf Golf Championships to be held at Forest of Arden, Birmingham, England in August of 2020. I was the youngest member on the team (12 years old at the time of my selection). Unfortunately the event was canceled due to COVID-19. I am slated to compete at the United States Deaf Golf Championships at Falconhead Golf Club in Austin, Texas in June of 2021.

I did compete in the United States Deaf Golf National Championships in June of 2021 in Austin, Texas. I shot a 4 day score of 304 with rounds of 78, 77, 75 and 74 at a distance of 5800 yards. I won 1st place, and set a 4 day USDGC record for total strokes in the women's division. I will now compete in the 2022 World Deaf Golf Championships in Lihue, HI. I also am looking to compete in the 2022 Deaflympics in Caxias do Sul, Brazil next May.

I also defended my title as US Deaf Golf Champion in July of 2023 in Rhinelander, Wisconsin. I also plan on playing in the 2025 US Deaf Championship in July of 2025 in Orlando, FL. I was also selected to represent Team USA in Tokyo, Japan to play on Team USA in the 2025 Deaf Olympics taking place in November 2025.

I want to compete in as many arenas as I can in my junior golf career to prepare me to play at the highest level I can collegiately. I am a hard worker and have already overcome much in my life. I am a fighter and will never give up. I love God, my family and friends, my puppy and playing golf.

Par 72 at 6,190 yards. Played poorly on Saturday on a windy day, shot 83. Came back strong on Sunday to shot a 76 and climb 10 spots on the leaderboard. I was + 10 through 12 holes with my cochlear implants on. I took them off on hole 13 on Saturday and proceeded to shoot +5 over the next 24 holes. I played much better and was able to concentrate in a new way playing totally deaf.
Camp/Event
United States Deaf Golf Championships
7/10/23 to 7/14/23
Played from 5750 yards with a 73.9 rating, in the thick wooded forest in Northern, WI. The course felt like it played much longer due to the narrowest fairways I have ever seen. I could only hit my driver 3-5 times a round, mostly using 3H and 5W or 4I from the tees. I shot, 80, 74, 75 and 80 over 4 rounds and won first place in the Women's Open Division, just as I did in 2021. I am most proud that I only lost 1 ball in the dense forest over the 4 day event with fairways averaging 24-28 yards wide. I will be headed to The Gold Coast of Australia in August of 2024 to represent the US in the 2024 World Deaf Golf Championships.
Camp/Event
