Give us 5 words that best describe you as an athlete:
Hardworking, passionate, persistent, ambitious, focused.
Tell us about your best memory of your athletic career:
When I played my best round of golf (67) right after I played one of my worst (79) and realized that there are no two identical rounds in golf, that the most important shot is the next shot, that one should play till the very end, till the last putt drops.
Goals?:
To become successful professional golf player and eventually play on the PGA Tour.
Anything else we should know?
I realise that I come from a country where golf is next to non-existent and that makes my path to professional golf career even steeper, but I am prepared to work as hard as it takes to get there.
