My name is Olivia Hardesty and I began playing golf when I was 15 years old! I played on the Bellarmine University Women’s Golf Team for four years, graduating in 2022. In October 2019 I won first place in the Georgetown College Invitational where our team finished second as a whole. I volunteered and worked part time at First Tee - Louisville all throughout college. After graduating college, I became a full time employee at First Tee - Louisville focusing on our youth programming. I have been through all three coaching levels offered by First Tee National, now a Recognized First Tee Coach. I am also LPGA*USGA Girls Golf Certified. I am currently working on getting my PGA and am a PGA Associate. My passion is teaching golf, especially helping girls and women! I want girls and women to feel more comfortable and supported as they start a new sport or try to get better at it. I love to teach on-course, helping people with their course management to shoot lower scores and find confidence on the course!
