About Hydi
Junior Champion & Trailblazer
Hydi’s golf story began at age seven at Navesink Country Club in New Jersey, where she became a junior champion. She went on to win the Metropolitan State Championship, a prestigious title covering New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut. She also made history as the first girl to play on her high school boys’ golf team.
Teaching Professional
Her career took her from New England to California, serving as a teaching professional and assistant pro at respected clubs including Cape Arundel Golf Club in Maine, Ledges Golf Club in York, and Rancho Mirage Country Club in California. Along the way, she coached golfers of every level — from beginners to tournament players — with an emphasis on confidence and the mental game.
Entrepreneur
Hydi’s entrepreneurial spirit led her to create several ventures in Kennebunkport, Maine. She founded Hydi Drive, a concierge driving service that served top executives and high-profile families, and Hydiwave, a water taxi business. She also launched HydiGolf, offering teaching and coaching for players of all abilities, from beginners to advanced competitors.
Trusted Circles
Through her work with Hydi Drive, Hydi became acquainted with President George W. Bush and often played golf with him and his sister, Doro Bush Koch. These experiences reinforced her belief that focus, confidence, and composure are just as vital on the course as they are in leadership.
Performance Coach & Global Experiences
Today, Hydi brings it all together through her signature program, Mind Over the Ball. She offers private lessons, seminars, and corporate coaching that sharpen focus, manage pressure, and build resilience. She also leads Tee to Green Golf Events, providing golfers with the chance to combine luxury travel with world-class coaching at prestigious courses in Scotland and Ireland.
