With him is that all started to Maha Haddioui, he shall A Detected in it , soul one champion at De aGe 13 Only ANS. Head to head with Jean-Marie Kazmierczak to Know All Of Moroccan Golfer.
"There was nothing Maha one gifted, Had she Worked From character and much. the fact From To have no limit and no blocking to Keep Fit Was Determinant. »
How did you feel when you learned that Maha was qualified to the Olympics ?
first, what a good surprise ! Then of course pride, we are already doing an extraordinary job, what better reward for a teacher than to see former students succeed in their professional lives.
You are the first coach of Maha. You are the one who made him love the sport. Tell us a little beginning ...
early 2000, we had to create the Academy of Golf du Soleil, and open its golf school ! It started in a small group of young people of his age on Wednesdays and Saturdays, I see her again at the end of his first course in practice the bottom, stay in his corner trying to get off the ball and send it even further with an old iron ... 3 ! Ensuite, Maha wanted to return the next day, and each day she had time, it was easy since lived 500 meters from golf.
The suite was easy, when you have a cute little girl, super friendly and interested in the activity, you have no choice but to take charge and give him a lot of your time ! Months passed, motivation did not weaken, on the contrary, so we had to devote more time, integrate it into the group lessons that we. The type do not too far from me when I had tutoring, to see to it that she is training properly. I was fortunate to have in my team Fabien Metras who relayed to me very often, and also two Moroccan pros quality : Marwan Chamscedine et Kamal Gartite. It was part of our family !
Do you immediately detected in it the talents of a great future ?
Maha was not a gifted, it had character and worked hard. The fact of having no limit and no blocking for training was crucial. The academy was open to him 7 jours sur 7, from dawn until night (I even installed a projector so that it can also type in the evening). All possible equipment available and, Very important, access '' no limit '' our Consumer practice balls (she emptied regularly) !
She grew up and was trained in the middle of golf pros, coaches, players of all levels, she had to hang on for, being the only junior girl, Maha was to compete with boys or adults. a bad for a good ! With sweat and tears, it was the "job" over the years with us ...
She had the support of his family and especially his family ?
If his family had not supported and encouraged to 200%, it would have been mission impossible ! Parental consent is paramount and we had carte blanche ! we were friends with her parents, so it was easier ! They have always been very present and available for Maha, especially at the time, when we were going on competition in Morocco, Agadir being away from it all, it turned into shipping ! Because the means of everyone were still limited ... For his weeks of competition abroad, we had him faires its output letters to the Consulate of France, parental consent and a companion were mandatory ... So Fabien Metras who accompanied. a small thank the transition to our friend Youssef, Director of the RAM of the time, which really helped us and supported for these trips.
What are the main strengths and weaknesses of Maha? What he lacks him to go further ?
His strengths are his will, his playing technique and his current training structure. En effet, she is the ambassador of golf Tazegzout, ideal course, very fast greens and constant climate all year. Furthermore, l’ATH, son sponsor principal, did an outstanding job with it and puts it in the best conditions for success. Being the only player and the only representative of his country at this level gives performance requirements and additional pressure on the other hand ..., if they were more numerous at this level in Morocco that would create beneficial emulation and competition ... Would it make even more sacrifices ?
How do you assess its results in Rio ?
Maha missed his start to the tournament. When things get bad enchainent, it is difficult to move up the rankings in this kind of event, with the world's best players. The pressure and expectation to be too strong! A shame as Maha made this year one of its best seasons, work and experience have already started paying. I am sure she has the means to move to a higher level, given its potential.
