2 Wins – 2 Draws – 3 Losses; Played Position #2 (Riversdale Golf Club)

The “Why”
Arjun combines a professional-grade work ethic with a strong academic foundation. His trajectory over the 2025/2026 season—moving from a contender in harsh conditions to a consistent under-par finisher—demonstrates a rapid development curve. He is seeking a high-performance college golf program that can foster his goal of qualifying for the PGA Tour. Recommendation from his Coach Steve Bann:
Upcoming tournaments
