A Reno, Nev. native, Phillips got into long drive in 2015 after speaking with World Long Drive champion Heather Manfredda. She placed fourth in the women's division in the 2015 World Long Drive Championship and has a trio of other World Long Drive runner-up finishes. Alex documents her journeys on her entertaining Instagram page.
