What makes you different?
I am extremely dedicated to success in golf. I have a desire to win and be the best player possible and due to this desire I put in countless hours to dedicate myself to practice giving me the nickname “the girl on the putting green” at my golf club as no matter the weather even if its pouring with rain that will not halter my practice whilst everyone else is sitting inside I’m out there working on my game. This inner dedication I believe is what makes me different as I have been this way my whole life as I want to succeed, so will put in the time to ensure I do so. This is why I believe I will stand out in your team.
Why do you want to compete in college?
I have wanted to compete in college for as long as I can remember. The opportunity to play golf in the USA is far greater than here in the UK and to play for a team at such a prestige level would be such an amazing experience for me and really bring out my strengths in golf. I have always been a team player which fuels my desire to success to work hard to bring something towards my team. Playing college golf would be the perfect fit for me to grow my golfing potential and carry on playing the sport that I love.
College Goals?
I plan to study in sport or geography. I would love to be part of a successful team to experience winning and playing in a field of excellent golfers will spark my potential. My goal is to get my major and fulfill my lifelong goal to play for a college golf team.
