We sit down with Caroline Sturze right after her first professional win and trace the path that took her from junior golf in Switzerland to national championships at Stanford. We also dig into the real work behind her next chapter, from rebuilding her swing and body to designing a practice routine that holds up under tour pressure. 
• winning early as a newly turned pro in Morocco and what it confirms 
• growing up in a fiercely competitive golf family in Geneva 
• training through Swiss winters with camps, simulators, and creative ways to play 
• developing as a junior with Swiss Golf support and early LET opportunities 
• getting recruited, flipping from a verbal commit to Stanford, and meeting Stanford’s academic bar 
• adjusting to life in the US, competing in English, and learning Stanford’s culture of excellence 
• playing the Augusta National Women’s Amateur and what surprised her about the courses 
• Stanford championships, elite teammates, and how the environment raises your standard 
• injuries tied to overtraining and a major equipment change, plus the value of rest 
• making her swing more rotational and less timing-based for consistency and longevity 
• building a pro support team in Europe and choosing a coach who adapts to the player 
• the impact of her brother Max, including cross-handed chipping and wedge control 
• her current practice structure, performance drills, and season goals on LET Access
