Tell us about your best memory of your athletic career:
My best golfing memory came during Country Match Week! I was 1 down on the 17th hole and was told that if I did not half my match, my team would have lost the entire match. I was very determined to not let that happen and obviously a little bit nervous as well. I halved the 17th meaning I was still 1 down going into the last hole. I ended up winning the last hole and tying the match after having been 5 down at one point during the round. It was definitely one of the highlights of my career, especially with everyone watching and cheering me on!
Goals:
My short term goals are to keep improving my ranking and handicap and to represent England! Long term, I would like to play on the LPGA Tour, win majors and play in the Solheim Cup!
Anything else we should know?
I am currently the Kent Junior Captain, which is a great honor for me!
