Personal Statement
My goals for the future are many, in relation to golf I want to improve every day, to be part of a university team, to compete, and to achieve many successes. But I also want to study and obtain a university degree just like my parents; since I was little I have been taught the importance of doing both activities, studies and sports.
I consider me a good candidate because I have always been committed to what I do; study in a bilingual school and my schedule is from 7:15 to 3:30, at that time I go out to carry out my activities, three days a week I do three hours of ballet and I train 3 hours of golf, to reach my house to do my homework and study; on the weekends I play 36 holes, all this time I dedicate to working with the purpose of achieving my goals, so I dont fear to the work or the demands to improve every day.

- Findings You are able to rotate your upper body independent of your lower body. This is important for creating power and maintaining a stable posture during the swing. Findings You have great flexibility in your forward bend mechanics. In other words, you can bend forward and touch your toes with your knees locked. Believe it or not, this is a big plus in golf since it allows you to get into a good set up posture by bending from the hips and not modifying your spine posture at the same time. Findings The total external rotation in your right shoulder is over 90 degrees while standing tall. The average range of motion for players on the PGA Tour is over 90 degrees. You have good external rotation in your right shoulder, which should allow you to set the club and rotate your right arm into any position that you want during the backswing.
