Personal Statement

I aim to come out to America and give every aspect of it my all.
Golf is my priority as I aim to turn pro afterwards and play on the professional tour week in week out, however I also am aware of getting my academics and that will be just as important for me. I love being In a team environment, I feel like it brings me on, this stems from my younger days of playing football. I look forward to being in a good environment with good people where I can work extremely hard to fulfil my ambitions. In America I would want to win as an individual as many times as I can and be of any help to the team I can both on and off the course. Looking longer term I want to turn professional and play across the world winning on both the PGA Tour and European.
