Medicus Golf Junior Development Player Matt Hageman has signed to play golf at Illinois State University.

Matt began his 2007 tournament campaign by winning our own Medicus Golf AJGA Preseason tournament outside of Chicago by firing a final round 66.  Matt proceeded throughout the year to climb the junior rankings. This earned Matt several looks at and offers by Universities throughout the country but when all was said and done Matt decided to stay closer to home and become a Redbird.

 

Matt is looking forward to his final year of high school and upcoming tournament golf season before embarking on his college career.  With the recruiting class and returning golfers at ISU, they will be in position to compete at a high level in the NCAA.  Matt looks forward in helping ISU to move event further up the NCAA Golf Rankings.

Matt began working with Chuck Evans, Executive Director of Instruction, and Tracy Lehnecker, Director of Operations, of Medicus Golf at the end of 2007.  Besides long distance swing analysis and constant contact by phone and email, Matt has made several trips to Destin to get hands on work.  While in Destin he stays at the Sparks home where he enjoys frequenting Cantina Laredo and staying up later eating popcorn and watching movies with Sheryl Sparks, Randy’s wife. 

In February Matt will be making his first trip of 2009 back to Destin where he will be apart of the first weekend events of the upcoming Medicus Golf Player Development European “Bash on the Beach” .  While in Destin he will be able to continue hands on training from Chuck Evans and mental coach Carey Mumford.

Matt, congratulations and the Medicus Golf team looks forward to your future successes.

Annika Calls It Quits

Annika Sorenstam announced today that she is “retiring” at the end of the season.  Here is the excerpt from Fox Sports.

Annika Sorenstam

In the end, it was quintessentially Annika Sorenstam.

Speaking in a cramped media center at the Sybase Classic, Sorenstam, winner of 72 LPGA titles, announced she would “step away from competitive golf” at season’s end following a historic 15-year pro career. The 37-year-old LPGA and World Golf Hall of Fame member kept her composure throughout the 25-minute press conference; it may have been more surprising had she not.

Sorenstam arrived at the dais wearing a black hat and black long-sleeved top, the funeral attire broken by khaki pants. She looked down at a lone, folded piece of paper she brought with her while patiently waiting for a few minutes for technical difficulties to be resolved, occasionally smiling at a familiar face.

“Hi, everybody — thank you for coming,” Sorenstam began. “The last time I saw this many cameras was at Colonial.”
