Interview

Give us 5 words that best describe you as an athlete:

motivated, focused, powerful, patient, rhythm

Tell us about your best memory of your athletic career:

My best golfing memory was when I shot my lowest ever round of 73 in a tournament in Praforst, Germany. That round could easily have been an under par round and that day I ended up winning the gross, net, the longest drive and the closest to the pin challenge!

Goals:

My short term goals are to win the Greek national championship and to represent Greece in international events. After that I would like to play college golf and have a successful college career!

Anything else we should know?

I cannot remember when I hit my first golf ball. My father is a teaching professional and from a very young age we were always travelling together with him and his golf groups. So every year I was a little bit more involved with golf. Since 2014, due to my father’s golf activities, every summer we went to Germany for two months to a town about 120km from Frankfurt. The last two years I have been taken golf more seriously. Especially when we are in Germany, I practice and play the whole day together with my sister Marietta. I really enjoy the golfing life in Germany, especially in that area. In Greece, I do not have the same opportunity, as the golf course is in bad condition and for sale without a proper maintenance! This year, I am a member of the Greek National Team and I am looking forward to play a major role in representing my country! Between all my activities, studying, languages, and music, golf is by far my biggest interest!
