MATT THURMOND ON MICHAEL MJAASETH:
"We noticed his name and results, followed him a little bit but the very first time we saw him play was in Paris, France. He was playing in the European boys team championship and Michael was playing for Norway. I heard about his confidence, comfort, ability and smooth swing from my staff and knew I had to watch him play.”
“So a couple weeks later I was in the Czech Republic for the European Young Masters mostly watching another player but I remember the first moment I saw Michael. He was with his group from Norway, he was walking to the first tee, he was in the middle, he was walking confidently and comfortably smiling while talking with a group. He had such great poise and then I saw him tee off the first hole -- a beautiful smooth swing, powerful and smooth. It was just awesome and we knew it was a guy we wanted to recruit."
"He exudes maturity and poise he makes you feel that he is someone you can count on as a teammate. We are so thrilled he is a Sun Devil."
