Personal Statement
My name is Dean Tsandes. I am 16 years old and a Junior at Park City High School. I started to play competitive golf at age 8. Today, I am very serious about my golf, practicing every day and having lessons every week. I am also playing competitive tournaments locally and around the country, including Rocky Mountain Junior Golf Tour, Future Champions Golf Tour and AJGA.
My schoolwork is also very important. I finished my Sophomore year with a 3.9 GPA. As a Junior, I am continuing with honors math and other academically challenging courses and I plan to continue pushing myself with other honors courses during high school.
My foremost goal is to play golf in college. I know I need to work hard to play at the college level and I think about what I need to do each time I practice. I believe that playing college golf is a once in a lifetime opportunity that could lead to many great things for me in the future.
