Yassine Rafi '22 Recruiting Profile

I am writing to apply for a spot on your prestigious university golf team. My name is Mohamed Yassine RAFI, an 18-year-old Moroccan golf player with a deep passion for the game. Joining your top-ranked university and golf team would be an exceptional opportunity for me, providing a high level of education and sports capacity that will give me a competitive edge and help me achieve my dream of playing on the PGA Tour.

My journey in golf began at an early age of 10  when I first walked on a golf course with my father. It has been my dream to see my name and university logo on the leaderboards next to other players. I have already won several junior tournaments, including ranking 2nd individual and 1st in team in the Pan Arab Games at Dreamland Golf Resort (Cairo, Egypt) in 2019. Additionally, I was ranked 3rd in team at All Africa Junior in Phakalane Golf Estate (Gaborone, Botswana) the same year. I practice four times a week while balancing my school work and daily during my vacations.

Despite the restrictions related to COVID 19, I continued to train both physically and mentally as all tournaments scheduled in 2020 and 2021 were canceled. I also organized some club tournaments for other juniors in my city, where I beat my personal record by playing a 65 (-7) on a 7000-yard course. Furthermore, I have managed to maintain excellent grades (A) at Agadir International French High School (SAT score 1170) and scored 88 on the TOEFL.

I am excited about the opportunity to take my game to the next level and contribute to the success of your team. If you require any further information, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Sincerely,

Mohamed Yassine RAFI
