In this episode, Nicole Katz, single mother of Asher Katz shares her experience raising Asher in the game of golf. She has seen it all, the good, bad and ugly of junior golf and feels that she and her son have grown a lot through this journey. Nicole has done a lot of reflection along the way and continuously adjusted what she has said and done with her son to make his experience in golf a positive one that will hopefully last a life time!
Although results aren't everything, Asher has had 12 wins this year and a number of top fives.
