Why I Started GolfIndoorPass
Golf has been part of my life for decades. As a teenager, I played competitive golf and came within one stroke of advancing through U.S. Open qualifying.
Then life took me in another direction. For 31 years, I didn’t compete in a golf tournament. But golf never completely left my life.
My journey back to the game became part of a much bigger story. I was born with epilepsy and spent much of my life dealing with seizures, medications, uncertainty, and fear.
Eventually that journey led me to awake brain surgery at UCSF. I had to fight my way back—not only physically, but through challenges with speech and communication following surgery.
That experience changed how I looked at life. I was given another opportunity to pursue things I had once put aside. One of those things was golf.
After 31 years away from competitive golf, I returned to tournament competition. My personal journey of epilepsy, brain surgery, recovery, faith, and finding purpose is told through AWAKE.
