The CHIEF January 2018

Her brother was her biggest influence to become a golfer. He originally had an interest and Ali wanted to be just like him. Ever since taking a few lessons and playing in her first competitive tournament, she has had a huge love for the game. Golfing is a family tradition; besides Ali and her brother, her dad, sister and grandfather are big golfers as well with her little sister winning a state championship too. Ali practices whenever she can, even through the winter and takes lessons with her swinging coach. She wants to be the best that she can and knows that will only happen if she works hard. She says that it feels amazing to have won State and that it has been a goal of hers since entering high school. Ali also wants to become a professional golfer someday and that it would be a dream come true for her. Good luck, Ali, from all of us at PTHS! N O M A D I C | 2 4
