Happy Gilmore, a real person who shares the name with the famous movie and character, has proven himself to be a talented golfer, perhaps on par with the fictional hopeful hockey player turned pro golfer. Gilmore, a high school senior from Bloomington South High School in Indiana, has committed to playing golf at Ball State University.
Gilmore, whose first name is actually Landon, earned the nickname “Happy” when he was just six years old and started playing in golf tournaments. His dedication and skill have earned him a spot on the roster at Ball State University, an opportunity he is grateful for and excited about, according to a post he made on Twitter.
In recent tournaments, Gilmore has performed impressively, finishing T-7 at the Indiana high school boys’ golf state tournament and shooting even par over 36 holes. He also achieved a notable score of 66 at the U.S. Junior Amateur qualifier. Currently, Gilmore is ranked 497th in the Golfweek/Sagarin boys rankings.
As he embarks on his freshman year, Gilmore will surely want to avoid any challenging holes, such as the infamous “ninth green at 9.” His journey as a golfer is just beginning, and there is no doubt that he has a bright future ahead.
It remains to be seen if Gilmore will have any famous partners like Bob Barker or “Lafferty Daniel,” or if he will participate in the Waterbury Open. Regardless, his commitment to golf and his evident talent will surely pave the way for success.
