Congratulations to Thomas O'Byan from Waubonsie High School for winning this year's Illinois High School Boys Golf 3A Championship! Thomas is a wonderful young man and deserves the title after working so hard these past several years on his total game.I have had the pleasure of working with Thomas, along with his professional golf instructor, Connie Demattia, at the Cantigny Golf Academy for the past several years to help Thomas develop his golf-specific physical strength and conditioning program.
Thomas has done everything that I have asked him to do in his fitness training program and his total performance improvement has been a tremendous validation to the concept of 'integrated' performance enhancement - the complete, synergistic blend of golf instruction, physical training, mental training and custom golf equipment.
Thomas' parents have fully understood the value of supporting Thomas by providing him with all of the resources offered through the Cantigny Golf Academy http://www.cantignygolf.com/ and the results are evident. Thomas' scores have dropped consistently over the past two years, he has earned a Division-1 college golf scholarship at the University of Wisconsin-Madision and he now is the best high school golfer in the state!
I wish Thomas all the best as he now moves forward into his college golf career and hopefully beyond to his goal of playing professionally on the PGA Tour. I can't think of a more deserving individual than, Thomas O'Bryan. Way to go Thomas!
