She made three consecutive birdies and an eagle between holes three and six, which resulted in a score of 67 and put her in a share of the lead during the round.

In 2023, she won the Girls Amateur Championship with a record score of 12 & 10. In January 2024 she won the Portuguese International Ladies Amateur Championship, and in late May she birdied the final four holes on her way to a final round 64 to force a playoff at the Dormy Open Helsingborg, a Ladies European Tour event, won by Perrine Delacour on the first extra hole.
