Personal Narrative: One Person Play Golf

The downfall of Tiger Woods has been epic. It’s hard to recall an athlete that has been as dominant as Woods has been on a golf course follow majestic and historic performances with such horrendously inexplicable play.

Tiger Woods was born in Cypress, California, in 1975. Tiger Woods was raised to be a champion. Brought up by a father who put a golf club in his hands before he could walk. For an entire generation of kids, Tiger was a hero and viewed in the same light as the best athlete in the world. Tiger Woods studied at Stanford University, and won a number of amateur U.S. golf titles. By the summer of 1996 he shot to fame after winning the Master’s at Augusta, with a record score of 270 and at the age of twenty-one he was the youngest player to earn the title. He became among the top best golf players of all time since turning pro at the age of twenty. His 14 major tournament championships are second only to Jack Nicklaus who has a total of 18, a record he once seemed destined to exceed. Tiger Woods is one of the greatest golfers to have ever played the game. His tournament record worldwide is greater than anyone else’s. He has been at the top of the game for twenty years now; he is probably the most formidable force in the modern age of golf. He is one of a kind, my idol.

I started to play golf when I was 7 years old first I have to learn the rule and protocol, this is my first class then I started to learn how to hit the ball, and change the golf posture.3 years later I join the match, it is my first match and I got a good score. And after this match I understand what is golf match and I have to use a mentality, just think if my score better than last time then I win. I like golf because I learn a lots in it, such as be a honest person and have patience.

It was one summer morning and my dad was up early for something and I did not know why and I heard a crack and I walked in the living room and nothing was wrong and I asked my dad” What happened.”

Many people would consider golf to be a game rather than a sport. Golfers do not have to be great athletes or in terrific physical condition. Golf is accessible to most people and it does not require a team (most times), so it seems to be a game. Golf does require skill, practice, and athleticism, the same as other sports. Pro golfers practice often, are in great physical condition and make a living from golfing. Golf draws many spectators per year. Golf meets the definition of a sport because it takes skill and practice to be a great golfer, and meets the large majority of definitions.

The golf swing takes in total of 17 muscle groups in the coordinated movement of hands, wrists, arms, abdomen, and legs according to the study in the BMJ (British Medical Journal). Playing golf on a professional level requires ability to be able to walk long distances (on average 4.5 miles) and hit the ball long and straight with consistency.

country golf, a speed round of golf, and of course, having days where half the course is closed for junior golfers. Cross country golf is a game where players start at one hole and then shoot to another. For example, if a player started on hole 1 they would have to finish on hole 8. This type of game really helps the player break out of their comfort zone and pushes them to make those challenging shots. Speed rounds are self-explanatory. Students would start on a certain hole and try to get as many holes accomplished in an allotted time. This event would make students work hard to get the shots that are more helpful rather than harmful. During the event there would be many different types of food and drinks available for students.

Golf is one of the fastest growing sports in the world. It is a sport that is loved by people all over the world and can be enjoyed anywhere in the world. It never used to be as popular as it is now, but some golfers have made it a very well beloved sport. The development of golf since 1945 to 2016 has been a massive change over the years and has had a massive impacted on Australia, but has also been a significant advancement in golfing history.

I became apart of Marcus Golf my sophomore year after I switched over from soccer. With a smooth transition I was able to be successful very early on. I was nominated to be team captain my sophomore year when I was on JV, and when I got moved up to Varsity I continued to be a strong leader. With lots of hard work and dedication every day I was able to win an award for Most Fairways my junior year. I enjoy being a part of this program, and love being a leader on and off the

It was a normal Saturday for my team, the Montgomery Rebels, at Lagoon Park, and there was not a cloud in the sky. My team and I were about to play a team called Triple Play (despite the name they could barely get a double play.) My coach, also known as my dad, came up to me and said, “Does your arm feel good?”

Do you ever have that moment in your life where you put everything aside a focus on one thing? The date was September 14th, the golf tournament at Yorktown Golf Course. I had been waiting for this tournament all year. This was my chance to put all that I have worked on for weeks into full effect. All I could think about was a medal and how much I really wanted it. This was my chance to have something that would really raise my confidence.

It happened on June 11, 2015. My lacrosse team won our regional quarter final game the previous day—I scored my personal best of five goals and was named Player of the Game. As a reward for the win, my coach gave us a three hour practice the next day that was strictly conditioning—leaving the seniors 30 minutes to go home, shower, change, and drive to our Senior Dinner at Bowdoin College. I raced home from practice, my sweat sticking to the car leather seats, music blasting, and the wind in my hair. I had the future on my mind: playoffs, graduation, summer, and college. I took an ice cold shower and threw on a dress, making my way to Bowdoin 15 minutes late (and still sweating). I went through the motions of the Senior Dinner that night: I

As my mom, sister and I pulled up to the golf course I almost didn’t want to get out of the car. When I got out, I look and see all of the juniors and seniors sitting together, laughing with no nerves at all, they all looked so intimidating. I also see the horrible conditions of the golf course. The eye catching, perfectly rolled and cut putting greens I was used to, looked like heaven compared to the brown, bumpy greens of Tumbledown. The white exterior paint turned to a peeling dirty brown. The website made it seem much more luxurious, I was not impressed, but then again I knew that golf barely got any money from the school so we couldn’t afford anything else.
