GABY LOPEZ

MEXICO’S TOP FEMALE GOLFER, LPGA CHAMPION & OLYMPIAN

Gaby sought to compete at the very highest level from the time
she took up the game of golf at the age of 4. At the University
of Arkansas, she was the program’s best golfer since former
World #1, Stacy Lewis. Gaby’s high level of skill and
competitive drive helped the Arkansas program ascend to the
top 5 in the country, but her coaches are quick to point out that
it was her incredible work ethic that set an example for the
entire team. Despite being one of the most driven players in
college golf, she wears her fun and expressive personality on
her sleeve, even in the heat of competition. As one golf writer
said so succinctly, “She’s infectious! You just end up cheering
for her!”
Following in the footsteps of former world #1 golfer, Lorena
Ochoa, Gaby has the same opportunity to rally an entire nation
of over 122 million people behind her. As with the likes of
Ochoa, Fernando Valenzuela and Hugo Sanchez, Mexico has a
history of loyally supporting their sports stars. If her confident
play and impressive resume are any indication, Gaby Lopez
could very well be the next legendary athlete to come out of
Mexico.
