Tell us about your best memory of your athletic career:
My best golfing memory was at the England U14 Reid Trophy where I made the cut and played my best round of the week in the hardest conditions moving up the leaderboard significantly. I played really well in a strong international field being only the second boy in Dorset to make the cut in this tournament.
Goals:
To win a tournament on the PGA or European Tour.
Anything else we should know?
I have been passionate about golf since I could walk. I had my first golf lesson at age 4 and have been playing ever since. My golf game has had highs and lows but I have learnt how to handle myself through both. I love being part of a team, having played county golf since I was 11 and this year being selected to play for Wessex in Atlanta (Georgia) in the Colonial Cup. When playing for a team or individually I always give it my all and never give up. I work hard at my game, and have this year started working with a strength and conditioning coach and a sport psychologist to get the most out of all aspects of myself as a player.
