Many say Lewis's story is the best in golf due to the obstacles she has had to overcome in order to play the game again. After having back surgery and spending seven and a half years in a back brace it was unsure if Lewis would be able to walk again let alone play golf.
She is the type of individual who is very competitive but still considerate and doesn't let whatever obstacles stand in front of her get in her way.
Some of Lewis's achievements include 3 rd at the US Open in 2008 her first event as a professional, winner of the NCCA Invidual Championship in 2007, ranked number one amateur in the USA in years 2007 and 2008, Curtis Cup team member in 2008 and more..
