TEMPE, Ariz. -- The summer before golfer Linnea Strom arrived in Tempe, she wasn't sure leaving her home in Gothenburg, Sweden was the right choice.
She was nervous.
"I didn't know if I was making the right decision or not," Strom said. "Should I stay back home and practice with my coach or should I go to ASU?"
She left behind her coach, Ola Lindgren, a mentor since she was 12 years old. But he thought the opportunity to compete and attend school overseas was an experience his longtime pupil shouldn't pass up.
