We spoke to Pia Babnik, the 18-year-old Slovenian sensation who made her first birdie aged just four, joined the Ladies European Tour aged 16, and won the 2021 Jabra Ladies Open a year later.

We asked what inspired her to take up golf, why social media is important for the future of the sport, and who would play in her dream fourball.
