Even as a small child, I wanted to play golf. Why is still a mystery to this day, because nobody around me played golf at this time. I started playing at GC Donau when I was 6 years old in 2010, became U10 national runner-up 3 years later and was invited to the Upper Austrian state squad. With this team I visited an European Tour tournament, where I met Wiesberger, Jiménez and other top golfers. Since then, it has been my goal to make it to the top as a professional golfer.
At the age of 14, I was invited to the national team, which I was a member of for six years until I turned pro. In 2020, at the age of 16, I played in professional tournaments for the first time, and a year later I made my debut on the Challenge Tour. In 2022, my first top 10 on the Pro Golf Tour followed. In 2023, I was in the leading flight of a professional tournament for the first time on the final day and made my first top 3 at a pro tournament. I did not receive any prize money, as this is not paid out to amateurs in golf.
As an amateur, I became national and vice national champion several times and represented Austria at European Championships and the Eisenhower Trophy, the biennial golf world championship. After graduating from the Linz BORG for competitive sports, I completed my basic military service in 2024 and was accepted into army sports. The crowning glory of my last full amateur season was the Austrian Match Play national championship title. By starting in just three of a total of 16 tournaments on the Pro Golf Tour calendar, I also earned a Cat 9 starting right for the 2025 season.
I have been a professional golfer since March 2025. A big and important step on my way to the top that I could hardly wait for. But as the saying goes: "Good things take time." Many thanks to everyone who accompanies and supports me or will do so in the future!
