SUIS Gubei advocates holistic education, and Herman Liu is an outstanding student nurtured under this philosophy. First introduced to golf at 4, he has long held the dream of becoming a PGA Tour professional. Bolstered by the school’s inclusive and diverse environment, he strikes a balance between academic studies and over 25 hours of weekly golf training. Currently, he is actively applying to major U.S. college golf teams, having established contact with—and garnered attention from—golf coaches of world-renowned universities. He is steadily advancing along his journey to fulfill his dream.

 

 

Through consistent and rigorous training, Herman has excelled in numerous domestic and international junior golf tournaments, with notable achievements including:

 

International Tournaments

• 2025 Michigan State Junior Golf Championship: Champion
• AJGA Detroit UHY Qualifier: 1st Place
• IMG World Championship (Asia-Pacific Region): Runner-up
• World Amateur Golf Ranking (WAGR) Points Event: Champion

Beyond his personal success on the course, Herman wants more of his peers to experience the unique appeal of golf. Inspired by SUIS Gubei’s campus culture that encourages student initiative and sharing, he took the lead in launching the school’s first golf club and now serves as its president.

 

In this role, he has been fully committed:

• Securing off-campus training venues to provide a professional practice platform for members
• Recruiting and inviting professional coaches to offer systematic guidance for their skill improvement
• Carefully organizing the club’s initial operations to create favorable conditions for active participation

Thanks to his dedicated efforts, golf is gradually taking root on the SUIS Gubei campus.

 

Herman’s growth is not limited to the golf course. He has a wide range of interests: he delves deep into biology and finance, expanding his knowledge through SUIS Gubei’s curricular sessions and ECA (Extended Curricular Activities);he also enjoys collecting cultural artifacts, which helps him foster patience and inner calm. From the golf course to the campus, and from academic exploration to hobby cultivation, he exemplifies the core SUIS Gubei qualities of focus and perseverance through his ability to turn passion into action.

 

 

We wish Herman all the best as he chases his PGA Tour dream. May his dedication and passion inspire more SUIS Gubei students to follow their own paths and shine bright.
