Answer 1

Any dream is good period, all that matters is you take the actions to make your dream come true!

Answer 2

Alyssa,

You don't need other opinions. If you think you can make it, then give it everything you've got. I used to play hockey for a living, and had tons of people tell me I'd never make it. But I believed in myself and kept improving. That's what it's about: Belief in yourself and constant and never-ending improvement. Sorry to go all Rudy on you, but it's true. Go for it kiddo.

Answer 3

What school is CSHS and if you make it to the state tournament college coaches will look at you and go on from there.

Answer 4

You can always go to college for a couple of years (or better, get your degree) and hone your game there.  You'll get better instruction on the game of golf, better fitness and nutrition ideas, and lots of practice.  Plus, the degree will be useful in the unfortunate event you don't make it to the Tour.

Having said that, you can try to go straight to the pros.  Maybe go to the Futures Tour to hone your game on pro-like courses, then take a shot at Q-school.  Hey, Morgan Pressel was a pro at 17 (I believe) so anything is possible.

Don't sell yourself short.  And honestly, don't listen to us.  If YOU believe in YOU, and you have a sound supporting "cast" around you, that's all that matters.  Go out there and kick some a$$!!!  Much luck!!!

Answer 5

You have a shot. About 1 in 10,000.

Answer 6

Everyone has dreams

Answer 7

your good will you play on my group next year

Answer 8

Since you hit your drives further than any of the LPGA players, shoot consistently in the 70s and only 16, I suggest you enter and win all the lady and girl amateur tournaments, qualify for the ladies British Open and forego your high school experience.  Michele Wei was never this good. Your chances for success await.
