Ever since I could remember I’ve always wanted to be the best I could be at golf. I started out playing for fun‚ but as I got older I began to play in more and more competitive tournaments. Golf is a growing game among kids my age and younger. You may think golf is "an easy ride to college"‚ "an easy sport to pick up"‚ but the competition is stiffer than it has ever been. Especially living in California‚ the number one ranked state with the best junior golfers in the nation and the world. Unfortunately
