Bio

Hi, I'm Alex, 26 years old, from Berlin and I'm a professional golfer on the Ladies European Tour.
In December 2022, I earned my tour card for the 2023 season by winning the Final Stage LET Qualifying School.
My rookie season 2023 was simply overwhelming: I was able to play international tournaments on beautiful golf courses and won the VP Bank Swiss Ladies Open and the Mallorca Ladies Golf Open.
I then finished the season in 8th place on the LET Order of Merit and also qualified for the US Tour via the LPGA Q-School.
In 2024, I won the Aramco Team Series in Tampa, Florida, and also won the Amundi German Masters in my hometown Berlin. In the summer, I was able to fulfill a dream and compete for Team Germany at the Olympic Games. I am pursuing the goal of playing on the LPGA again soon and, one day, being able to play in the Solheim Cup.

Great start into the 2026 season!

Alex enjoyed a successful Australian swing and a fantastic start to the 2026 season! The first tournament Down Under proved to be a real challenge — despite brutal weather conditions in New South Wales, Alex played outstanding golf and finished in a tied 5th place. This was followed by a tied 38th place at the Australian Women’s Classic and a tied 17th place in Lockleys, Adelaide. At the fourth and final event, the Australian WPGA Championship on the Gold Coast, Alex capped off the swing with an excellent tied 2nd place finish, climbing to 6th position in the Ladies European Tour Order of Merit.
