Share Your 2025 Golf Goal

We want to hear from you, Normal Sport reader, about what your golf goal is in 2025. Maybe it's as simple as finishing 18 for the first time or as advanced as shooting your first round in the 60s. There are no wrong answers, but we would love to see what you're personally trying to accomplish this year.
I’d like to just play again. I tore my left Achilles, had surgery, and then had lots of complications in rehab, so I didn’t hit a single golf shot in 2024.

I want to play a full round with my father in law. I am not a big golfer by any stretch of the imagination, and I know that doing this with him will really make him feel loved. To achieve this (and not embarrass myself in the process), I'll need to spend a good amount of time practicing ALL aspects of my golf game.

Continue to play regularly whether it's 9 holes at the local muni on a weekday morning before work or the occasional weekend round when the schedule permits. My wife and I are expecting our first child in early February and the thing you always hear is "say goodbye to the golf game." Hoping to still find that balance of getting out on a semi-regular basis while enjoying our new normal with our baby girl.

Play 1000 holes, and play at least 20 new courses!

Super non-specific goal, but just playing as much as I can. My wife and I are expecting our first child in June, and we've both gotten really into golf the last couple years. We're thrilled to finally be starting our family, but the thought of losing such a great activity together is starting to hit. I hope we'll be able to play as much as we can leading up (weather in KCMO is another hurdle). Goal is to keep playing together as she transitions through the trimesters and into postpartum life.

Commit to playing at least once a month! When I do play, not take it so serious. Enjoy my time be it by myself, friends, or strangers and just enjoy *trying* to hit some golf shots.

I'd like to break 80, increase my driving distance, but mainly get through the season without injury. It's a shorter season in the Calgary area so there's not a lot of time to get my game in order.

- Play more golf with my dad - Break par twice - Master the 50-yard bunker shot (à la Bryson)
