Gabriela Ruffels (born 18 April 2000) is an Australian American former tennis player and current professional golfer. Starting at the age of eight, Ruffels started playing tennis and won twenty one International Tennis Federation doubles events in Europe. She also was the number one ranking Australian junior when she was twelve. After switching from tennis to golf in 2015, Ruffels primarily competed in Australia from 2016 to 2017. In 2018, Ruffels joined the USC Trojans women's golf team at the University of Southern California. With USC, Ruffels appeared at the NCAA Division I Women's Golf Championships from 2018 to 2019 in both the individual and team events.
During this time period, Ruffels became the first ever Australian to win the U.S. Women's Amateur in 2019. In professional events, Ruffels was tied for 13th at the 2020 U.S. Women's Open and the 2020 Women's British Open. At the ANA Inspiration, Ruffels was tied for fifteenth in 2020 and tied for nineteenth in 2021. During the 2021 Women's PGA Championship, Ruffels finished the event in a tie for thirty-third place. Ruffels announced her decision to turn professional on February 10, 2021.[1] As a professional golfer that year, Ruffels primarily competed in LPGA Tour events while also appearing at the Symetra Tour and Ladies European Tour. During golf events held in 2021, Ruffels was fourth at the IOA Championship and tied for seventeenth at the Hugel-Air Premia LA Open.
