Tell us about your best memory of your athletic career:
At the 2017 Scottish Boys Championship I knocked out the second seed in the round of 32. I got off to a real shaky start and hit some loose shots, but as the round progressed, I managed to compose myself and hit some quality shots which allowed me to convert some birdie chances and beat my opponent 3&1. It was a tough challenge I really enjoyed and it is also something I plan on doing again!
Goals:
To pursue a career in professional golf
