Abby found her love for the game of golf through her dad and uncle. From an early age, the goal was not just to keep up off the tee, but to outdrive them both! This competitive spirit opened up opportunities to play collegiate golf at Drake University, where Abby was a standout student-athlete. She completed a triple major (international business, marketing, and Spanish) and a master’s degree in business analytics.
Toward the end of Abby’s collegiate career, she discovered the sport of long drive. After her first win as an Amateur in McAllen, Texas, Abby started competing regionally on the ULD tour and found early success. She then turned pro in early 2024 and qualified for the WLD World Championship by hitting her longest drive of the season at 330 yards!
Abby’s first Professional win came during the 2024 JPLA International Long Drive Championship in Akita, Japan.
