Answer 1

On a more formal basis, I began learning golf in sixth grade. I developed fundamentals with the driver, irons, wedges and putter, and worked on short game, course management and shot shaping, among other skills. In high school I advanced to the varsity golf team, and in my final year I was named team captain. Golf has been a tremendous platform for me to build discipline, strategy and a deeper understanding of the sport.

A couple of years ago I spent a season caddying and helping run events at my local club. Being behind the scenes of tournament preparation and club operations exposed me to another side of the golf world. The head pro noticed my enthusiasm and taught me about swing analysis, club fitting and course setup. I was amazed and excited by all the detail that goes into playing and presenting the game, and that experience clarified what I want to pursue as a career in golf.
