Personal Information

General

I am a 15 years old high school golfer who is born on 4 July 2006 and is a member at Bonnie Doon Golf Club. My lowest handicap is 2.4. I have been playing golf competitively at club level since 2014. My personal best was 68 (-4) at Wagga Wagga Country Club in Wagga Wagga Junior Masters 2022.

Objective

To become a scratch player at the end of this year. To complete the HSC in 2024. To compete at US College golf level through a college/university sports scholarship program. To complete the degree at college/university.

My hobby and interest are playing golf, listening to music, and math as my favourite subject. I also have a big brother and his name is Arki Valdy (17 years old) who is also a scholarship holder at The Australian Golf Club Foundation and trying to get in to the US college Fall 2023. We are a third-generation family of golfers – my grandfather is a golfer as well as my dad. Outside golf, I am content creator of Arkiron.co – a start-up blogging website.
