About Me
I'm a professional golfer playing on the European Ladies Tour. I travel around Europe all year playing in tournaments.
My Interests
Golf, Music & family.
How did I get into golf?
I started playing when i was 11 years old. I went to watch my dad practice on the driving range & i ended up hitting some golf balls too. The professional coach there later came over to talk to my dad & he said that i should play golf seriously because he has never seen a girl hit a ball like that before. So the next day i got some golf clubs & started playing.
Where do I get my inspiration from?
I get my ispiration from Tiger Woods because he is a great sportsman. Also Lorena Ochoa because she is No.1 lady golfer in the world & so down to earth & has a great family base. Finally Nick Faldo because hes my mentor & hes helped me so much in my career, also hes a great golfer!
My Ambitions in life
To be a successful in my career & to be a good role model for young Sikhs.
My message to the Sikh youth
Be ambitious in whatever you want to do. Don't waste your life. Be a good Sikh.
