"I'm just so thankful to have two supportive and loving parents that let me chase my childhood dream. Life is too short to not do what your heart desires. And they also taught me you have to be a good person and spread kindness above all." This award is so meaningful to them.

"My parents have sacrificed so much for me and my brother. It’s not easy to dedicate as much time and effort as they have - taking us to practice, researching tournaments, and arranging travel as well as finding coaches and signing us up for lessons. I’ve been incredibly lucky to have one of them traveling with me throughout my entire career which helps me to focus on golf while they take care of things off the course. This award is special because it’s a way to honor everything they’ve put into helping me become my best. Sometimes it’s easy to get caught up in what’s coming next, and receiving this award gave us a chance to reflect on the successes of the year as a family".
