Tell us about your best memory of your athletic career:
My best golfing memory was the first big tournament that I won. Another great moment was in a big national event in Denmark when I was level par going into the last whole with a chance to win the tournament with an eagle. I hit a great tee shot and was left with 220 yards to the hole on this par 5. Even though I was very nervous I hit a perfect shot that ended up about 6 feet from the hole. Even though I missed the putt, it was still a great experience for me because it showed me that I can hit such an amazing long iron shot even when the pressure is on!
Goals:
My goal ever since I started playing golf has been to be a golf pro. This goal has not changed and I will do whatever it takes to get there!
Anything else we should know?
I love the game of golf and have very high goals for myself. I work extremely hard to reach those goals and am someone who never gives up, no matter what my score is!
