Highlights Part 2Personal Statement
My name is Elijah Abundis; ever since a child it has been a dream of mine to play at a Division 1 university and ultimately pursing a professional career in the sport. I believe that my dedication, hard work, and unwavering faith in Jesus Christ have shaped me into the individual I am today.
From a young age, I have been captivated by the game of golf and its unique blend of skill, strategy, and mental fortitude has always fascinated me. I have spent countless hours on the range and course, honing my skills and pushing myself to new limits. Through the high and lows, I have learned the value of perseverance and the importance of maintaining a strong work ethic.
I firmly believe that hard work is the key to success, and I am not afraid to put in the extra hours of practice, to push myself beyond my comfort zone, and to continually seek improvement. Whether it's refining my swing technique, enhancing my mental game, or improving my physical fitness, I am committed to doing whatever it takes to reach my full potential as a golfer.
As I embark on this next chapter of my life, I am determined to make the most of every opportunity that comes my way. My goal of playing Division 1 golf is not just a dream; it is a tangible target that I am relentlessly pursuing. I am confident that with my work ethic, passion, and unwavering faith, I will be able to achieve this goal and make a positive impact on your college golf program.
Lastly, I would like to thank my parents, family, friends, coaches, and my Heavenly Father for all the support and belief that I can achieve this goal of mine. Without you guys I can whole heartily say I would not be the same man I am today.
