2024 SpotlightPersonal Statement
My name is Olivia Thetford and I’m a student at Poplar Bluff High School. I have been playing golf since I was 11 and started tournament golf when I was 13. I want to attend a college where I can excel and grow as both an athlete and student. I am devoted to golf and would like to continue my love for the game at a collegiate level. I look to improve and continue learning what there is to know about the game. I believe that I am very dedicated and hold myself to a high standard. I am also very coachable and hard working.
