• US Open Stage One Qualifier
• 4/24/23 to 4/24/23
• This was my first attempt at qualifying for a major championship. The course was setup for a US Open qualifier with very challenging pins and fast greens along with chilly weather and gusting winds. I was confident coming into the one-day, 18-hole qualifier and got off to a strong start with a -3 first nine (*I started on #10) to be tied for the lead after nine holes. I had a couple tough holes on my back nine but was able to offset two bogeys with two birdies to finish the day with five birdies. I was thrilled to hold the lead until the final group when a (-5) came in to take medalist honors. The T2 finish allows me to move on to the final round qualifier for the US Open. https://wvga.bluegolf.com/bluegolf/wvga23/event/wvga2372/contest/1/leaderboard.htm

• WV Junior match play
• 5/13/23 to 5/14/23
• The WV junior match play is a bracket format with 16 players, all of which have to qualify. I didn’t do my best in qualifying so I came in as the 8 seed. I won my first match 4@3, I won the quarterfinals 1 up, I won the semifinals 7@6, then I came to the finals and had a great battle with a great player and friend going back and fourth almost the entire round untill he got 3 up with four to play, I ended up playing the last four holes three under par which led to my opponent having a must make putt on the last hole which he did end up making and won the match, overall I played really solid golf, made a lot of birdies, and learned a lot about my mental and physical toughness over the 65 holes I played.

• Golfweek Junior Tour elite event at Gibson Bay
• 5/20/23 to 5/21/23
• I shot +2 on day one, hit the ball very well, just had an unfortunate double and strung in some bogeys. On day two I started out -3 through 12, I strung in two bogeys down the stretch but I was still in a good position to have a solid finish. Unfortunately on the last hole, I was laser focused, and I ended up hitting from the wrong tee box, which lead to a triple bogey and me shooting another +2 on the day. Though the scores do not reflect my best performance, I believe I struck the ball very well and found very many positives in my game leading into some bigger tournaments in the coming weeks.
