Tell us about your best memory of your athletic career:
My best golfing memory came at the St Andrews Boys Open in tough, windy and wet conditions after being 2-over par through my first four holes. Even though I had a tough start, I kept fighting back to shoot a round of 2-under and finish second and qualify for the match play stages.
Goals:
To improve my game enough over the next four years so that I can have a go at the professional ranks of the game!
Anything else we should know?
I have always had the goal to play professional golf and I will always work hard and do whatever it takes to get there!
