Tell us about your best memory of your athletic career:
My best memory was at the 2024 All Africa Junior Team Championships when I made a birdie on the last hole and my teammates told me we had qualified for the Toyota World Junior Team Championships. I was filled with so much relief and happiness after such a tough week.
Goals:
In the long run, I would like to be a professional golfer playing on the world’s biggest tours. My goal right now is to play as many golf courses as possible to gain experience whilst also lowering my scoring average to sub 70 and making my putting the strongest aspect of my game.
Anything else we should know?
I have been selected by the Africa High Performance Programme. They assist with coaching, nutrition and equipment and I wish to work with them for the foreseeable future.
