GET TO KNOW ALKY

DOB: 05/07/2000 in Athens, Greece

Nationality: Greek and French

Education: International Baccalaureate

I grew up in Dubai, UAE, where I attended an international school. There, I learnt English and Arabic, adding to the two languages I spoke fluently at home, French and Greek. 

I spent my childhood and teenage years playing many sports and was captain of multiple teams, including basketball, football, and netball (to name a few…)

However at the age of eight, I decided to start golf lessons at Emirates Golf Club and since then I have never stopped. I found golf so interesting because it was an individual sport and fun to share with my father. To add, I also started winning some junior tournaments and I won my first Greek National title at the age of 14. Equally I entered the Greek Women's National Team at the age of 15 which allowed me to play in various prestigious tournaments including The Duke of York Trophy and The Team Shield. 

Since then I have aspired to become a professional golfer. This ambition has led me to the Netherlands where I am currently training. 

I am currently playing in International European Tournaments and the Ladies European Access Tour. Equally I played in the Highest division for the team championships with the Rosendaelsche Golfclub, where I am unbeaten in all my matchplay rounds.
