Cedar Hill instructor Eva Kovacs celebrates one full year of golf without missing a day
**Victoria, B.C.** – In a testament to passion, dedication, and an unwavering love for the game, local golf instructor Eva Kovacs has achieved a remarkable feat: playing golf for 365 consecutive days. The Cedar Hill Golf Course pro celebrated her year-long streak this week, marking a full orbit around the sun without missing a single day on the green.

Kovacs braved rain, wind, and even the occasional snow flurry to maintain her streak. She often squeezed in rounds before or after teaching lessons, demonstrating an unparalleled dedication to her craft.
While some days involved full 18-hole rounds, others consisted of practicing on the driving range or putting green, ensuring that she engaged with the sport in some capacity each day. This adaptability proved crucial in maintaining her streak, allowing her to overcome logistical hurdles and time constraints.
The accomplishment has garnered significant attention within the local golfing community, with many praising Kovacs for her unwavering commitment and positive attitude. Students have expressed their admiration for her dedication, noting that her passion for the game is infectious and inspiring.
