Personal Statement

I want to graduate college with a good degree and compete at the highest level of golf I can. I am a very determined, hard working person and I enjoy a challenge. I am a good student in school and I get along with everyone. I have the drive to succeed and ultimately be the best I can be at whatever I choose to do, but also having fun along the way. I have won numerous tournaments in my junior career and I love to compete. I am a very competitive person and I love to win. With hard work and determination I believe anything can be achieved. I am either in the gym or practicing everyday to improve. The key to my success is work ethic and I need to keep pushing myself in order to keep improving, both in the classroom and on the course. This year of golf for me will be the best I have ever had. I am feeling extremely confident with my game and I am really excited for what lies ahead of me this summer.
