Sport<\/strong>: Men’s Golf Jaap is a 21-year-old golfer from Nijmegen, Netherlands. He grew up in a sporty family and started playing both hockey and golf at the age of seven. Until he was fourteen, Jaap played both sports, but at one point, he had to make a choice. Since he was playing hockey at the highest level, he decided to temporarily stop playing golf.<\/p>\n\n\n\n When the COVID-19 restrictions halted the hockey season, Jaap decided to start playing golf again. Since then, he has made tremendous progress and has become a dedicated golfer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Jaap stands out for his social character and his love for challenges. It\u2019s no surprise that it has always been a big dream for him to go to America to further develop his golf career.
