Justin Miller has only been golfing a couple years, but the Saskatoon product’s athleticism has landed him a college golf commitment.
Miller, 17, will attend Southwestern Community College in Creston, Iowa starting in the fall.
During COVID-19, Miller said golf was the “only thing to do,” so he got a membership at the Saskatoon Golf and Country Club, played “about 100 rounds a year” and now has elevated to a college player.
He played in his first Golf Saskatchewan Junior Men’s Championship this summer in Yorkton, placing 40th overall. Miller still has another year left to play the under-19 championship next year in Lloydminster, where he hopes to place higher.
Miller spoke with Golf Saskatchewan about the commitment, his start in golf, jumping to competitive golf and what his future looks like in the classroom.
