Bria on golf cartThank you for coming to my website. I would like to welcome you here to get information about this great adventure of being a junior golfer that I am on.

I am fortunate to be the child of great parents who love and support me very much. I was born on March 6,1996 in Atlanta, Georgia. It was the same year of the Centennial Olympic Games.

When I was three years old, my dad gave me a set of plastic clubs. He would take me with him to the public golf course and I would play around on the putting green until I met my first love…The sand box, I mean sand bunker. I loved going to the course because I got to spend time playing in the sand. I still get in the sand a lot today, only now I’m practicing bunker shots (smile).

June 2001, I played in my first tournament a North Fulton Golf course. I was the only girl in my age group so I had to play with the boys and I won. I received a lot of nice gifts and a trophy. That is one of the many experiences I have been fortunate to be involved in with golf.

My parents tell me often of the sacrifices that have been made in the past that allow me to play this great sport. . They speak of women golfers like Ann Gregory, Althea Gibson, Renee Powell and Laree Pearl Sugg. These and others have paved the way for myself and others to follow They also tell me of three principles to live by, and they are:

1. Be Trustworthy
2. Be the best at whatever you do, and
3. Respect Authority

They say if I live by these principles, I’ll have a good chance at being successful in golf and in life as well.
