The GUSTAV STIGSSON-ANDERSSON story
Manage episode 394954615 series 3233978
Swedish golfer Gustav Stigsson-Andersson, 18, says: “I think golf is the best thing ever, mostly mentally as it is so much fun. I strive to be a role model for golfers, not only for golfers with disability but also juniors at my club.”
Gustav had followed his Dad to the golf range aged 13, thinking it might be fun. “I had my left arm amputated below my elbow. I usually describe it as: ‘I don’t have a left hand’,” he explains to youngsters at Karlstad GC.
With a handicap near scratch and impressing at the EGA European Championship 2023, he was chosen for the Sweden team, inspired by teammates, G4D Tour winners Rasmus Lia and Johan Kammerstad. Of the G4D Tour he says: “It would mean the world to me, competing against the game's best players.”
