About

Sandra started playing golf at the tender age of six and cites her father as the most influencing character in her career.

Gal began competing at the 14, and joined the the German National Team at 17 – winning the German Girls National Championship within a year.

Whilst still competing as part of the German team, she attended University in the United States at the University of Florida. During this time she won the Ladies European Amateur in 2007 and qualified for the LPGA Tour for 2008.

After qualifying and subsequently turning pro, Gal was unable to compete in collegiate golf, instead she completed her degree whilst playing full-time on the LPGA Tour.

Gal graduated in 2008 with a degree in advertising.

The German represented Europe as part of the 2011 winning side and has been a regular Top 50 player in the world since the same year.

Despite regularly challenging for honours on the LPGA and LET, Gal only has one professional victory – her solitary win coming at the 2011 Kia Classic – taking the title from South Korean Jiyai Shin by a solitary stroke.

Sandra hobbies include painting and design, wakeboarding, playing the violin and increasing her modelling work.

We’re sure that amicable German will increase her trophy haul in years to come.
