Amateur Golf Podcast: Latin America Amateur Champ Aaron Jarvis

April 6, 2022 | by Sean Melia of AmateurGolf.com

The Latin America Amateur Champion joins us from Augusta to talk about his practice rounds and prep for The Masters

Aaron Jarvis is a self described grinder. His victory at Teeth of the Dog this past January in the Latin America Am was a perfect example of his toughness on the course. He finished his round with a flurry of excellent shots and watched as the final groups came through 18. When all was said and done, he won and had an invite to The Masters.

Jarvis is the first golfer to represent the Cayman Islands at the Masters, an island of 65,000 in the Caribbean will have it’s eyes on one of its own at Augusta National. I was lucky enough to speak with Aaron on Tuesday from Augusta. We talk about his preparation, playing with major winners in practice rounds, the amateur dinner, and meeting Tiger Woods.
