Chris shares her 32-year journey as a competitive golfer, living with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, and how braces, a cane, and a positive outlook help her keep playing the sport she loves. She talks about her many victories, including 20 club championships and a win at the Arrowhead Ladies Invitational with 108 competitors, and her philosophy of “play well and have fun.” Join us for an uplifting conversation about perseverance, passion, and what it means to stay dedicated and motivated on and off the course.
