Personal Statement
Golf is an extremely important part of my life, and I feel confident that I should pursue it at the next level. I have always been interested in every part of the game -- from the mental to the physical aspect. I have learned many lessons in golf, not only about playing the game, but life lessons such as perseverance, self-motivation, focus. It has taught me to be present and focused on what I am doing now, not the past. If I have a rough start, I always fight back and find a way to finish strong, no matter what.
These lessons from golf have translated into my academic performance and success. I am determined to continue my passion for the game at the collegiate level while getting a great education. My golf coach, Marcos Zuazu, has said that I am "the most accepting player that [he] has coached" meaning that I accept the result and move forward without hesitation. Any team that I join will receive my best efforts as an individual and a team player.
