I enjoyed the opportunity to conduct this short visit at Wellesley Country Club with Mr. Sansone on May 19, 2016. It was good to see the golf course in such good condition with negative impacts from the winter season. The turf was in good agronomic condition as we head into the summer season.

I begin to reminisce about the years of long hours practicing and grinding in order to get to this moment. I think about all the time that I’ve spent with my friends that were on the same mission that I was as we played the game we loved from the time the sun popped up in the east and fell down over the horizon in the west.

Marsden sat down with his swing coach to set up his objectives for his golf career. He realized he had a lot of work to do to reach that goal of winning a Green Jacket. Marsden’s father Jeff, had bought him a membership at Mattaponi Springs, where he would spend countless hours on the range and around the greens.

He would put in dedication into his golf game twenty four seven.
