Our guest today is Nikki McClure. Nikki grew up in a family of golfers but initially didn’t take to the game, preferring other sports. But when personal tragedy struck her young family, it was golf that helped bring her out from a very dark place and then buoyed her as she created a place of light for other women entering the game. 

From reluctant golfer, to beginner rebuilding her life, to entrepreneur in female engagement, to board member of Golf Victoria, to women’s captain at Kingston Heath Golf Club, to the first female club president at this prestigious sandbelt club in its 113-year history, Nikki has approached it all with a commitment to women’s golf combined with positive attitude and a sense of fun. 

Today she shares with us both the tremulous steps and the giant leaps forwards.
