Men’s Golf: Klaus Ganter strides though his athletic and academic career at UI

Nobody knows more about golf’s hardships than Klaus Ganter.

Golf carried the senior men’s golfer all over the world and eventually dropped him at the University of Idaho, where he said he has grown as a student, person and golfer.

Ganter was born in Poland and his parents moved the family to Germany, where they all started golfing, Ganter said.

Ganter said he really did not like golf at first and was much more interested in soccer or other team sports.

“I started getting better at around age 13, I joined the national team back home in Spain and from there on, it was just national championships and European championships,” he said.
