Give us 5 words that best describe you as an athlete:
strong, hard-working, positive, committed, motivated
Tell us about your best memory of your athletic career:
2018 was my most memorable year in my golf career. I played in The Junior Open at St. Andrews on the Eden Course and also got to play hole 17 and 18 on The Old Course. The same year I went to World Amateur Team Championship which took place in Ireland and which was an amazing experience!
Goals:
To improve my game every season and see where my golf can take me. If I have the chance after my college career to turn pro or to become a coach, that is probably something I would be very interested in.
Anything else we should know?
I speak three languages fluently (Latvian, Swedish and English) and also understand German and Russian quite well!
