Sophie Hausmann plans to play with the pros

After a stellar four-year career, a Vandal great has her eyes set on a chance to turn pro when her time at Idaho comes to an end.

Sophie Hausmann, a senior at the University of Idaho, is moving up in the ranks with intent to turn professional on the Ladies Professional Golf Association tour.

Hausmann, a Germany native, came to the U.S. to continue her golf career while attending school at Idaho.

Hausmann began golfing at a young age in a family of four that golfed together on weekends.

“The beginnings were joking around on the driving range with plastic clubs playing more soccer than golf,” Hausmann said.
