As easy as she makes things look on the golf course, you'd think Brooke Matthews was always destined for greatness. But it wasn't always that way. In fact, growing up as a multi-sport athlete, golf was more of an afterthought. But once she decided to focus her full attention on the golf course, the Rogers native starting winning junior events, and caught the eye of her home-state Razorbacks. And while playing for Arkansas was a dream for Brooke, things didn't go as expected in the beginning. On a roster loaded with future pros, she didn't qualify for a single tournament as a freshman. And so, Brooke made the decision to redshirt. That redshirt year and decision to take the more challenging road has paid off. She's won four individual titles since, represented the U.S. in the Curtis Cup, and played in the Augusta National Women's Amateur. And along the way, she shattered the 54-hole NCAA scoring record by a whopping six shots. She's kinda a big deal. And she has big dreams of a future in golf. But none of it would've happened without hard work and a refusal to take the easy way out.
