BELMONT, Mich. — Bringing a new life into the world comes with several sacrifices and responsibilities, and Gerina Mendoza cherishes every moment.
Mendoza, who has 40 career top-10 finishes on the LPGA, had always wanted to be a mother, and her dreams came true on April 26, 2018, when she gave birth to a baby boy, Ajeo Piller. Mendoza’s outlook on life, and golf, was changed forever.
It’s needless to say that raising a child is challenging, especially while being a world-class professional golfer. Luckily for Mendoza, she is no stranger to tricky situations, and through golf has learned how to thrive when the pressure is on.
