GOLF IS MY FIRST CHOICE AMONG SPORTS

Ahnaf Hassan is a well-known face at the Army Golf Club. He started learning the game in the beginning of 2016. Within a short time he won a number of trophies in junior group. But due to his O’ level exams, he stayed away from the game for almost a year. Now with the exams over, he has started playing golf again.
TheGolfHouse caught up with him at the practice ground and had a short conversation with him.

Q: How are you Ahnaf?

A: I’m fine, thank you.

Q: You were absent from golf last year. Why?

A: I was absent from because of my studies. I appeared for my O’ level exams this January and now that I’m done with my exams, I’m trying my best to get back in the winner’s circle.

A: I won about 8-10 trophies in my first season which was in 2016 and like I said, I’m trying to get back in the winner’s circle after a whole year of absence from golf.

Q: So you think studies get the first priority?

A: Studies will always get the first priority but if I’d like to choose a sport, golf would be my first choice.
