Although the average golfer is a bit older, I started playing the game when I was 12 years old.<br />At that time, I was fortunate to have youth golf camps available at my school. A group of<br />friends and I practiced at these camps to be able to join our school team and play against others.<br />Afterwards, I was invited to play in my first amateur tournament. Then I taught my dad how<br />to play while we toured the world for amateur tournaments. We played at famous golf courses,<br />like St Andrews in Scotland, which is regarded as the place where the game was invented.<br />Meanwhile, I played in tournaments like the junior British Open in England. Still, I had no idea where<br />my athletic career would take me. Upon returning to the US, my dad became my manager and we invested<br />all of our time into the sport. Then I worked my way up to play in the most essential tournament in<br />the world, the Masters tournament. And in the US Open tournament, I won a total prize amount of<br />15 million dollars. I owe all my successes to two things, my father's constant effort and having<br />a golf camp available to me when I was a child. No matter what happens, I will support my father<br />and will provide groups of children with that same opportunity that benefited me so much.<br />Although the average golfer is a bit older, I started playing the game when I was 12 years old.<br />At that time, I was fortunate to have youth golf camps available at my school.
