Student Spotlight – Gracie James

By Matt Smith, USGTF Professional

What about Gracie James? Gracie is a 10th grader at Watkins Memorial High School in Pataskala, Ohio. She placed 11th in the state tournament, and not only was first-team all-league but was player of the year. She also was first-team all-district.

The thing I love about Gracie is her passion to improve. She comes from a great family and has a tremendous work ethic. I have worked with Gracie for three years. Her strengths are her distance off the tee and her love for practicing. Remember her name…because she has a great chance of playing on LPGA Tour someday!
