#19 Golf Full Circle – Love, Quit, College Golf, Love Forever
Alexis Hayes shares her story about going through the ups and downs of golf, going full circle from loving the game, quitting, playing college golf and loving the game even more now. Alexis started golf at a very young age with positive influence from her parents, proved her coaches wrong and got onto a college golf team, playing 4 years at Sonoma State. She tells us her story that I think will be so relatable for many of you listening.
Golf gives us so many life skills and I think some Alexis shares exactly how great this game really is for the development of us in life.
