August 2013Personal Statement
Golf has been my passion for as long as I can remember. I'd love to go into a field where I can stay close to the game. Jobs like designing golf clubs have always intrigued me. I am one of the youngest in my class due to a fall birthday, but I am ready to challenge myself both academically and athletically. My game has vastly improved over the last 2 years. I am eager to keep improving my weaknesses and complete my game. I participate in the Top Jr. 50 Tour during the summer. I also won my Club Championship Jr. Division at Macatawa Legends shooting 77 both days. During my spring high school season our team won our invitational tournament at Wuskowhan Players Club, My 75 afforded me a 1st place individual medal out of the 5 schools participating. I also shot 75 during our Regional at Cedar Creek. Unfortunately, I pared the playoff hole (my opponent birdied) which kept me from playing in the state tournament.
