Landis Baxter '24 Recruiting Profile

Hello, my name is Landis Baxter and I am a Junior attending Providence Christian Academy, in Murfreesboro, Tennessee. I started playing golf competitively around the age of 11 after I completely fell in love with the sport. Ever since then, it has been a dream of mine to continue playing golf at a higher level. I pride myself in my abilities as a leader, both on course and in a classroom aspect. I use my voice to lift people up and also keep others on track with the task at hand. I will always be a present personality as part of a team. I am a competitive spirit that loves to win and will put in the work necessary to give a team all that I can to contribute to its success. I am a diligent student. As of right now, I hold a 3.97 GPA, I am a student leader for the Fellowship of Christian Athletes Organization at my school. I also hold another leadership role within my class. 

Three years ago, I tore my labrum in my right hip. Due to my age at the time I could not have surgery to repair it. In September of 2022, I underwent a successful labrum repair surgery and since then have been in physical therapy and just recently have been clear to return to all normal activities. For my entire career as a high school athlete, I have been playing through pain and discomfort. I am relieved to say that all of that discomfort is gone and I will have the opportunity to continue onto the next level pain free. 

Lastly, I love my family dearly, I possess a respectful and caring heart, and I am very involved in church. I would best describe myself as a god-fearing student who loves and respects this sport. Thank you.
