Personal Statement
I started this game when i was 7. After that i have only devoted time to play golf rather than another sport. My favorite thing for me in golf would be the mental state you need to be in to play well. It is one thing i do not understand at all. When i watch tiger on his sunday prowl. You can see determination and pure focus in his eyes. I wonder how he does it and how he manages to pull off everything he does. It is just facinating to watch because he is the only one who is able to make those 30 foot sliders to win the tourney, i hope that one day i am able to do what he is capable of doing, but do it better.
