Tell us about your best memory of your athletic career:
My best golfing memory was winning the Cyprus Men’s National Championship at age 14, becoming the youngest ever winner of the event.
Goals:
I am looking to play college golf and to help my college team win tournaments and hopefully a national championship. I want to use my college career to further improve my golf game and as a stepping stone for a professional golf career afterwards.
