Professionally, longtime golfer Jodi Ewart Shadoff says the highlight of her career was traveling to Tokyo for the Olympics in 2020. “That's something that I'll be able to save for the rest of my life,” she says. “It was just such an amazing experience and something that I'll cherish forever.”
At home, the English golfer has a lot more to cherish, including her two dogs: Zia and Winston. If it were up to her, she says, she’d have a few more pets running around, but she jokes that her husband “cuts [her] off from having more.”
Twelve-year-old Zia, the older of the two dogs, is named in reference to New Mexico’s state flag, Shadoff says. She attended the University of New Mexico, where she was a two-time NCAA All-American, and named her first dog in honor of that time in her life.
