Throughout every stop along Riegger\u2019s journey \u2014 which spans multiple continents, several countries, and a handful of states \u2014 golf has been a constant. Raised in Germany, but with stints in Ireland, Maryland, Florida, and Iowa, Riegger has used every location he\u2019s called home to grow his game.<\/p>\n
\u201cGolf is a fun experience, especially when you get to travel,\u201d Riegger said. \u201cYou get to see new places and interact with different cultures. The types of golf courses are also very different. If you’re playing in the UK or the US, they’re usually wider. Germany usually has pretty different golf courses compared to anywhere else, so the travel really helped me expand my game and make sure that I could adapt to different courses.\u201d<\/p>\n
Transitions come to Riegger as easily as the walk from one tee box to the next. The consistent travel in his life has given him not only an appreciation for every place and culture he\u2019s experienced but a knack for adapting to any scenario life throws his way.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAll the travel definitely helped me adapt to new environments much quicker than others might,\u201d Riegger said. \u201cEspecially when I moved around when I was young, I always had to find new people, golf courses, everything. It made me able to adapt to new environments, so when I\u2019m traveling now, it lets me still feel comfortable in new places.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Throughout every stop along Riegger\u2019s journey \u2014 which spans multiple continents, several countries, and a handful of states…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":674708,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[566],"tags":[64,63,755,85],"class_list":["post-674707","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-golf","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-golf","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/674707","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=674707"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/674707\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/674708"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=674707"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=674707"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=674707"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
