GC. Even though the economic situation, do you currently have any sponsors? AA. Right now, I do not have any sponsors; however, I had several talks with companies which I believe a great opportunity will come very soon and which will help me boost my career in 2011. GC. What’s the most difficult thing as a golfer like you would have to do in order to pursuit his dream? AA. I think that in life nothing is easy, you always have to fight hard and have a lot of consistency and perseverance to achieve your goals in life, the whole thing is that you have to give your 100% every time and of course, have people supporting you, in my case, my family, brothers, coaches, and friends which I thank God every day to have them in my life. It is also super important to have economic stability to cover all the expenses that are needed at the beginning to reach beyond that “small step” in order to make it to the PGA Tour. GC. Where do you see Alfredo Adrian 5 years from now? AA. Well, I see myself having a happy life living with a beautiful family in the United States, and being ranked within the top 50 best golfers of the world, very thankful that I accomplished my goal and sharing that with all the people who cares for me and have been very supportive throughout my golf career. GC. What are your goals for 2011? AA. My goal is to win any tournament in the Egolf Tour, several in the Minorleague Tour, qualify into some Nationwide Tour events through Monday qualifiers and of course participate in the PGA Q_ School at the end of the year.
GC. What’s your favorite golf course? AA. My favorite course is the Olazabal course at Mission Hills China, and I also like Augusta National even though I have not played there yet. GC. Favorite golfer? AA. Tiger Woods. GC. Are you superticious? Is there anything you do before or in the middle of the round? AA. Actually I’m not superstitious at all, things that I usually do sometimes when the round is not going well is that I change the ball or my glove. GC. Any hobbies? AA. I like to go to the gym a lot and to the beach. GC ok Alfredo thank you very much for your time we wish the best in your future, do you want to give thanks to anyone? AA. Yes, I would like to give thanks to my wife Maria Andreina for being there with me every time and for the support in my golf career in the good and the bad times. I also would like to thank my mom, dad and my brothers, also my coach Allan Andrews that he is always watching every small detail that could help me improve my game. I want to give a big thank to a special friend of mine Aldo Comuzzi who has helped me since I got to the United States and of course to all the persons that have shared their friendship with me and have supported me somehow, thank you all!
