Road to Paris #4 - Ashley Lau

In this episode of our Road To Paris series where we shine a spotlight on a Malaysian contingent heading to the upcoming Summer Olympics, all eyes are on 24-year-old Malaysian professional golfer Ashley Lau. Starting her career on the University of Michigan All-American women’s team, Ashley qualified for the Epson Tour and the Race for The Card to play in the LPGA before being the 22nd Malaysian athlete to qualify for the 2024 Summer Olympics. From being the first Sarawakian woman to turn professional here in Malaysia to beating out former world No.1 South Korea’s Shin Ji Yai by one stroke, Ashley joins us here this episode to share about her career journey and experiences, along with her goals for the future.
