About Athlete

Sports, sports, sports! My first memories involve either a club, a ball, a bat, or a stick. Sports has been an instrumental part of my life. This passion has been apparent my entire life – in the last three years, it has included putting in a lot of work at the course with the goal of making my dreams come true.

My objective is to achieve my golf goals but also earn a degree. I plan to combine my academic success with my athletic talent to receive a golf scholarship in the U.S.A. I feel that this is achievable given my hard work, dedication and commitment to my studies and my passion for golf. I look forward to showcasing my talents both in the classroom and on the golf course

I believe I have what it takes to excel in difficult and demanding situations. I stand out because I am hard working, and have strong time management skills.

Previously, I juggled competitive soccer and hockey simultaneously while maintaining strong grades. This has taught me the importance of prioritization and focus. I am also very hardworking and determined to be the best . In this respect, I believe I bring a lot to the table and would be an asset to the golf team.

Why do you want to compete in college?

I am interested in receiving a scholarship in the U.S.A because I will have the opportunity to showcase my golf talent and enhance my educational goals. I want to play and compete against the best amateurs.

College Goals?

I would like to pursue a NCAA division 1 school where I would can further a degree in business/commerce. I want to pursue my studies with the opportunity of representing my school by playing and winning golf tournaments.
