About Sarah Winter

Sara Winter grew up in Duncan, a small town in Vancouver Island, where her father raised her with strong morals and encouraged her to pursue her passions in life. Growing up Sara was always a natural athlete, excelling at dance, figure skating, and karate. But it wasn’t until she fell in love with golf at the age of 22, that she knew it would be a lifelong passion. While pursuing her bachelor’s degree, Sara realized her dream job would be to pursue golf professionally, so she took a risk to step away from school to practice golf full-time. Although a latecomer to the sport, in just four years she was able to achieve playing on a competitive mini-tour in Scottsdale, Arizona seasonally along with other Golf Canada events. Being a female athlete in a male-dominated sport, Sara strives to break stereotypes and show the world that through resilience and the ability to believe in yourself anything is possible. This year Sara partnered with TaylorMade Canada allowing her to be an influencer in the golf industry, and continue to help grow the game. Sara’s dream is to win on tour one day, but during her journey if she can help grow the game and get more women and children involved, that feels just as rewarding. On top of dedicating her time to golf, Sara advocates for addiction awareness in Canada, having her mother struggle with substance abuse growing up, she knows firsthand the effects it can have on families and loved ones. Sara wants to continue to use her voice and social media platforms, where she can reach over 100,000 people, to raise awareness for this issue in her hometown and across Canada.
