Career
My golf story began at a Golf Club Pfalz summer camp in Neustadt an der Weinstraße. What followed were the Golf Club St. Leon-Rot women’s team, the German team championship in 2017, victory at the English Girls’ Open Championship in 2018 and five successful years of college golf at Vanderbilt University in Nashville, with two All-American honours and the 2024 Dinah Shore Trophy. I have been a golf professional since 2024, have played the Ladies European Tour since 2025 and celebrated my first two professional wins on the Sunshine Ladies Tour in 2026.
2008
At the Golf Club Pfalz summer camp in Neustadt an der Weinstraße I hold a golf club for the very first time. A holiday week turns into the sport of my life.
2010
I move to Golf Club St. Leon-Rot near Heidelberg, one of the most renowned golf clubs in Germany and host of the 2015 Solheim Cup. I come up through its entire junior programme, and to this day the club is my training base and my golfing home.
2016
At 15 I play for the first time for the Golf Club St. Leon-Rot women's team in the Deutsche Golf Liga, the top team league in German golf. The same year the German Golf Federation calls me into the national squad for the first time.
2017
We win the German team championship at the Final Four of the Deutsche Golf Liga with the St. Leon-Rot women's team. My first big title in German amateur golf, and we celebrate it as a team.
2018
As the first golfer from outside England I win the English Girls' Open Championship, one of the most storied junior events in European amateur golf. A win that makes the papers back home too.
2018
At the Girls' Team Championship I play my way to third in the individual standings wearing the German national golf team shirt. My first international medal.
2019
On a golf scholarship I move to Nashville and play NCAA Division I college golf for Vanderbilt University. Five years in the black and gold of the Commodores, week in, week out against the best amateur golfers in the US.
2021
After my best college season I am named All-American and voted onto the First Team All-SEC, the selection of the best college golfers in the Southeastern Conference.
2022
With the German national golf team I win bronze at the 2022 Espirito Santo Trophy. It is the official World Amateur Team Championship in women's golf. It is played at Le Golf National near Paris, the 2018 Ryder Cup venue. Over four rounds the best two scores of our trio count each day. In the end there is world championship bronze for Germany.
2023
For the second time after 2021 I am named All-American and again voted onto the First Team All-SEC, in my last full season of NCAA college golf for Vanderbilt.
2023
I graduate cum laude from Vanderbilt University. My focus areas are psychology, communication of science and sustainability studies. For four years, study and elite sport ran side by side. That combination is exactly what US college golf is about.
2023
With the German national golf team I win bronze at the European Ladies' Amateur Team Championship. After world championship bronze the year before, it is my second international medal in a row.
2024
I complete my Master of Science in Finance with honours at Vanderbilt University's Owen Graduate School of Management. Golfer and economist, to me the two belong together.
2024
In the final of the European Ladies' Amateur Team Championship in Madrid we beat France 4½–2½ and I become European champion with the German national golf team. After bronze the year before, it crowns our team years.
2024
The Women's Golf Coaches Association and the LPGA Foundation award me the Dinah Shore Trophy. Since 1994 the prize has gone to a single college golfer in the US each year. It honours performance on the course, in the classroom and beyond. I am the first Vanderbilt player in 25 years to win it. In 2022 Aline Krauter was the last German before me. In November I turned professional.
2025
Through LET Q-School I qualify for the Ladies European Tour. In my rookie season on the LET I post my first top 10 in an LET event at the VP Bank Swiss Ladies Open and with it secure full playing rights on the Ladies European Tour for 2026.
2026
On the Sunshine Ladies Tour in South Africa I win the SuperSport Ladies Challenge at Humewood Golf Club after a six-hole playoff, only the second in the tournament's history. A week later I follow up at the NTT DATA Ladies' Pro-Am with a five-shot winning margin, my first two tournament wins as a golf professional. I finish the season second in the Sunshine Ladies Tour Order of Merit.
2026
Leading after a bogey-free 67 in round two of the MCB Ladies Classic in Mauritius, I finish T5, my best result on the Ladies European Tour to date.
About me
I was born in Speyer and I am at home in Neustadt an der Weinstraße. I picked up golf at age ten at Golf Club Pfalz and have played for Golf Club St. Leon-Rot for many years, winning the German team championship in the Deutsche Golf Liga with its women's team in 2017. I have been part of the German Golf Federation's national squad since 2016 and became European team champion in 2024.
I spent five years at Vanderbilt University in Nashville studying and playing college golf at the highest level in NCAA Division I. After my bachelor's degree I completed a Master of Science in Finance, was named All-American twice and Academic All-American four times, and received the Dinah Shore Trophy in 2024 for combining athletic and academic performance.
Today I play as a professional golfer on the Ladies European Tour, and you can find my current tournament results and golf statistics right here on this website. Golf has long been more than the game itself for me. I care about climate action and sustainable sport, among other things as an EcoAthlete and Sustainable Golf Champion of the LET and GEO, and I work as a pundit and commentator for Sky.
And because the stories behind the sport fascinate me as much as the game, I talk about life on and off tour with Julius Allzeit in Back 9 Stories, my segment on the German golf podcast Grün und saftig.
Team
Golf looks like an individual sport, but it is won as a team. Behind me stands my coaching team of golf coach, national team coach, mental coach plus fitness and nutrition coach. Together we work on swing technique, mental strength, athletics and nutrition, so that I am ready on Thursday when the first round starts on the Ladies European Tour.

Since I was ten. I started at Golf Club St. Leon-Rot and the club is my golfing home to this day.
The classic route through the amateur game: junior national team, five years of college golf at Vanderbilt University in the US and turning pro in 2024. Through Q-School I then earned my playing rights on the Ladies European Tour, where I have competed since 2025.
At Vanderbilt I completed a bachelor's degree in psychology and the communication of science, followed by a Master of Science in Finance. Both help me on tour, one with the mental game, the other with the business side.
As a professional, my two wins on the 2026 Sunshine Ladies Tour and fifth place at the MCB Ladies Classic in Mauritius, my best LET finish. As an amateur, winning the 2018 English Girls' Open Amateur, team bronze at the 2022 World Amateur Team Championship and team gold at the 2024 European Championship.
Because our sport happens outdoors and every week I see how much it depends on an intact environment. I am an EcoAthlete and was named a Sustainable Golf Champion by the LET. Climate action and green finance keep me busy off the course too.
At Ladies European Tour events, the calendar is on my tournaments page. Many tournaments are on TV and streaming, live scoring is on the LET website.
