Explaining what she does to keep her fit, she pointed out that she focuses on exercises that make muscles strong.
“I do things that benefit me in general keeping me strong and fit. I work a lot on my hips as they are troublesome, so I work on my hip flexibility, my balance and my general strengthen and conditioning,” she shared.
The golfing sensation said that she has improved tremendously in recent months. “It keeps my golf in good shape, I am more central and stable, which keeps my legs steady. I work hard to keep everything solid and grounded”.
During her interview, Nikki revealed that she had been an avid surfer before joining golf, and even had a severe accident, hurting her hips.
She went on to say that she has been working out for the last ten years, which has helped her fix her injuries.
“I had a surfing accident when I was younger and ended up injuring my back and hips. So, I had to work out to keep them strong and stable, and obviously, it has improved my golf swing,” Aussie golfer shared.
