Give us 5 words that best describe you as an athlete:
Consistent, determined, competitive, resilient, relentless.
Tell us about your best memory of your athletic career:
My best memory in golf is returning home from the Quadrangular Series unbeaten for Wales. I won all my singles and foursome matches against Scotland, Ireland and Holland. I was the only player to achieve this feat.
Goals:
My ultimate goal would be to win the Masters – emulating the only other Welshman to win a Major, Ian Woosnam. It’s my dream to turn professional and have a long and successful career playing all over the world. I would also like to play in the Ryder Cup. Before turning professional I would like to play for GB&I and it would be my desire to become an All-American when playing on the collegiate circuit.
Anything else we should know?
I play for Hawthorn High School soccer first team.
