Give us 5 words that best describe you as an athlete:
Persevering, enthusiastic, focused, consistent, competitive.
Tell us about your best memory of your athletic career:
My best memory in golf was playing my first sub-par competitive round. This was at Crans Sur Sierre in 2021, where after three rounds I scored +6 to be runner up in the U18 classification.
Goals:
In the short term over the next two years before college, to develop physical strength and mobility to rank along ladies amateur stats and to add to my repertoire of shots. In the long term, I want to compete with the best and give myself the best chance to develop as an LPGA professional.
Anything else we should know?
Besides golf, I am interested in my studies and enjoy learning and understanding more about the world. I am motivated to reach my goals and enjoy the sense of achievement. I also play the piano and drums in a band.
