About Athlete
My name is Will Sherman and I am a golfer from Sweden.
I first got into golf at the age of 14. throughout the summer of 2020, I went to the driving range a lot at my local golf club, and enjoyed it so much I eventually became a member there.
I played my first competition in the summer of 2021, in a junior golf tour in the UK called Futures Tour. In my third event, and my third ever competition, I came second. After being involved in this tournament series I started to love playing competitive golf, and joined several other competitions to build my experience of being on the course in a competitive environment.
I played my first WAGR competition in early 2022 in Spain. This was part of the Triple A series hosted by the Jason Floyd Golf Academy. Despite not having my best result, I still loved the experience.
In summer of 2022, My family moved from the UK to the South of Spain, specifically Sotogrande.
I then joined the Jason Floyd Golf Academy in September of 2022, combining my studies at Sotogrande International School, with a full time golf programme.
Since joining the academy, I have improved my golf a lot, and started playing more WAGR competitions.

What makes you different?
What makes me different is my quick progression in golf. After only playing golf for just over two years, I have quickly come down to a low handicap and a good level of golf.
I look forward to progressing even more over the next few years and throughout college.
Why do you want to compete in college?
I want to compete in college golf because I believe being in an atmosphere surrounded by other golfers equally as passionate as I am would push my potential and make my golf game the best it can be. I would learn and grow by competing against other golfers, whilst also being immersed in the college golf team atmosphere.
College Goals?
I want to see how far I can go with my golf and I believe college will give me a great opportunity to do so.
My goal is to get a lot of playtime, compete and win competitions and enjoy being part of a team.
