When it came down to a three-way sudden death in the Trans-Miss Amateur tournament, Men’s Golf senior William Mouw stepped onto the green and calmly sank in a 20-foot birdie to secure him the victory.

For the Chino, Calif., native, this shot was a culmination of hours of practice in what he said has been a busy offseason.

“That whole week I stayed patient through things that went my way or things that didn’t,” Mouw said. “I was resilient to have enough patience, to trust my game, have confidence in my game [and] that it was enough to play well and win.”

In addition to the San Francisco Qualifier, U.S. Open and the Trans-Miss Amateur Tournament, Mouw participated in the Pacific Coast Amateur, the Western Amateur and the U.S. Amateur during the offseason.

Mouw said at the end of a tournament and the last shot is there, he’s already practiced that shot hundreds of times.
