Personal Narrative: My Main Golf Tiger Woods
Whenever I meet someone new, there will come a time where they ask me, what sport do I play. I'd say golf. But why do I play this most unusual sport. Well one of the reasons why I play is because of my main golfer Tiger Woods or in other words my hero. The three points I'll talk about today are: who is he, why him and what he has done to be the best.

    Personal Narrative: My Spring Showdown Baseball Tournament

    “The only thing we have to fear is fear itself” is a phrase that stays true to everyone especially during your freshman year of highschool. When I was fourteen, my baseball team went to a spring showdown baseball tournament. Spring showdowns have always been my favorite type of tournament since I played 10u travel ball. Although now I have a different perspective on these tournaments. On the way home from this particular tournament my face look like a baboons buttocks, with a big red swollen eye that was surrounded by brown and purple bruise. This was from a fouled off baseball, and I will never forget the event or the decisions I had to make. As a freshman I had to learn how to make educated, courageous, and tough life decisions.…

    Personal Narrative: The Sport Of Baseball

    As I hear those words that I most deeply despise come out her mouth, it quickly led me to think that this woman did not know what she was talking about. Before she had said these words we were talking about our favorite sports and she said hers was basketball and I told her mine was baseball. “Baseball is boring to watch,” she said. Hearing someone say this about my favorite sport that I have been playing throughout my life irritates me and it brings my attention to wonder why people find this sport boring. People similar to this woman, believe that baseball is a boring sport yet they do not realize that it is actually one of America’s most exciting sports!…

    Personal Narrative: A Girl's Golf Team

    When I first came to Lake Highland I tried out for the girl’s golf team, but I was not experienced or skilled enough to make it on. This was a devastating moment for me, but I realized that I needed to try harder and work harder to make it on the team the next year. I became much more skilled and was able to make the team with ease. What the failure told me was that if I got knocked down then I would have to work hard to get back up. This lesson was very crucial to me my junior year of high school. During the golf season I severely injured my wrist. This injury put me out of the game for six months. I gained arthritis in my wrist, but I remembered what happened to me in seventh grade and worked hard to regain my skills. I made the team the…

    When I was 4 years old, I started playing T-Ball and I became obsessed with the sport. I played every summer from 4 years old until I started playing school ball. I loved the sport so much, I played travel ball every summer and fall. My goal was to play college baseball after graduating high school. I quit all other sports so I could train year around on baseball. My senior year I was chosen to take part in the Under Armour Baseball Tournament in Bradenton, Florida.

    Personal Narrative: The Game Of The Tournament

    It wasn’t the ideal weather to finish a baseball game, especially not an elimination game. It was a humid, cloudy afternoon in Bourbonnais, IL during the month of July. The winds were strong and throwing dirt and dust everywhere. The infield was hard and dry with a light colored dirt that was blinding when the sun came out. In the outfield, it wasn’t much better, the grass was long and patchy. These conditions made it hard to concentrate and play.…

    Personal Narrative: A Career In The Sports Industry

    There are many sport professions within the sports industry, but many of these jobs are highly sought after making them competitive in the job market. Working for a professional team has been my dream since the age of 12. Growing up I played almost every sport, so I followed most of the ESPN channels. I got the opportunity of meeting Kelly Baisly, a marketing coordinator for the Jacksonville Jaguars. In our discussion she was able to lead me in the right course when it came to deciding my career path. Almost everyone I have talked to about getting into the sport industry has said one common thing, and that is, get as much experience as you can. On a typical day to day basis, Kelly will arrive at work at 9am and immediately start brainstorming…

    Benefits Of Persevering

    As we talked about Rogue wave, Scoot succeeded her escape, but also, when she persevered, she benefited in many other ways too. One way was, as she was working her way to escape, she remembered that she had once seen a toolbox under the companionway steps which saved her a lot of time because time was burning and she was too weak to open the highlight. It says on page 13, line 345-347, “Scoot had seen a toolbox under the companionway steps and went back to try to find it. She guessed there’d be wrenches inside it, unless they’d spilled out.” As we also talked about What It Takes to be Great, Bobby Fischer succeeded by becoming a chess grandmaster with 9 years of intensive work. In that essay, Tiger Woods started golfing at an extremely early age, 18 months and that made him persevere as he was growing up. He benefited from it because it encouraged him to practice intensively which made him practice for 15 years, becoming the youngest-ever winner of the U.S Amateur Championship at the age of 18. It says on page 9, paragraph 18, “Tiger Woods is a perfect example of what the research shows. Because his father introduced him to golf at an extremely early age—18months—and encouraged him to practice intensively.” It’s crazy how Tiger was introduced to golf at the age of 18 months and how he benefited from it.…

    I started young. A small girl with the passion in her heart to be just like her sisters. I wanted to be able to share the same excitement from the game as they had. Every time I stepped on the field, fire ran through my veins and I was filled with such excitement. Win or lose, I still couldn't wait until my next at bat, or my next play. Once I joined travel ball, I lived and breathed softball. I would go weeks with no break, and never had a complaint.…
