Broad horizons, an international perspective, a high-level learning platform, and more choices and opportunities—these are what parents and children who choose golf hope for. Kylie, a G2 student, is a golfer with many years of experience. Today, let's delve into her story with golf.     
All parents and children choose golf for the broad horizon, international vision, high-level learning platform, and more choices and opportunities. Kylie is a golfer who has been playing golf for many years. Let's take a closer look at her story . 

Kylie's Golf Kylie's golf "career" began in kindergarten. Her reason for choosing golf was simple: to spend more time with her father, who shared her interest. This sport, initially undertaken for her father, began in this way. However, as a young child, Kylie didn't realize that golf was a "competition with oneself." Her usual training was always solitary, leading to boredom and weariness. But with her father's encouragement and support, she persevered for over 8 years.

Now almost 15, Kylie is a quite accomplished golfer. Each swing, each hole played, fully engages her mind, enhancing her strategic thinking. To practice golf, Kylie sacrificed her fair skin, undergoing years of arduous training. Even in the dog days of summer, she would practice for two hours daily. Each competition requires at least six hours. Her persistence has yielded excellent results.

Kylie's golf "career" began in kindergarten, and she chose golf simply because she wanted to spend more time with her father, who shared her interests.   This sport was started for her father at first, but Kylie did not know that golf was a "competition with herself" when she was a child. She always trained by herself, so she would feel bored and tired. With her father's encouragement and support, it has been more than 8 years.   

Now nearly 15 years old, Kylie is already an accomplished golfer. Her every swing and putt fully mobilized her thinking and increased her strategic thinking. Kylie has given up her fair skin to practice golf for up to two hours a day, even in the midsummer.   Each match also takes at least six hours. No pains, no gains; it is because of her persistence that she has harvested good results now.

Time management is a necessary skill for our "student athletes"; the school will not lower its academic requirements for students because of golf training. To make golf an added value in life, one must learn to improve learning efficiency, reserve more time for playing golf, balance homework, exams, and various competitions, and even sacrifice some rest and leisure time. However, after rigorous training, it will surely become a valuable asset in life.  
 

Kylie said that when she was 8-10 years old, while other children spent weekends playing with their parents in the park, hanging out with friends, going to amusement parks and watching movies, she was practicing golf. She gave up a lot of playtime because of golf practice. To balance her studies and training, Kylie now ensures at least three practice sessions a week. She has dedicated golf practice time during club activities on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and practices for over three hours after school on Fridays. If she has time on weekends, she will also go to the golf course to practice.

When Kylie was 8-10 years old, while others   spent weekends at the park playing with their parents, hanging out with friends, and going to amusement parks to watch movies, Kylie kept practicing, and she gave up so much of her fun time.   As for how to balance school and training, Kylie now practices at least three times a week. Every Tuesday and Thursday, she has a club class, then   she practices for three hours or more after school on Fridays. If she has time on weekends, she will also go to the court to practice.
