Early life

Rhodes was born in Bath, Somerset, England, and raised in Sotogrande, Spain. She was introduced to golf aged eight by her grandmother, a single-figure handicap golfer. Her sister Patience is also a golfer who attends Arizona State University. They were educated at Millfield School. [3]

Amateur career

Rhodes was runner-up at the 2018 French International Ladies Amateur Championship (Trophee Cécile de Rothschild), which helped put her on the 2019 Junior Solheim Cup team. [4]

Rhodes attended Wake Forest University form 2020 to 2024. She helped Wake Forest win the 2023 NCAA Division I women's golf championship, and tied for 10th individually in 2024 to earn NCAA All-American honors. [5]

Alongside her sister, she won bronze at the 2024 European Ladies' Team Championship in Madrid and won the 2024 Curtis Cup at Sunningdale Golf Club. [3]

Professional career

Rhodes turned professional after the 2024 Curtis Cup and joined the LET Access Series, where she won the Lavaux Ladies Open in Switzerland after a playoff against her compatriot Billie-Jo Smith. [6]

She received an invitation for the 2024 Aramco Team Series – Riyadh on the Ladies European Tour, where she won the team event alongside Chiara Tamburlini and Anne-Charlotte Mora. [7]

She earned her card for the 2025 Ladies European Tour at Q-School where she tied for 19th. [10] Rhodes won her first LET tournament at the Ford Women's NSW Open in March 2025. It was her fourth appearance in a LET event and her tournament included a course record nine-under-par 62 in the second-round. [11] The following month she claimed her second LET title at the Joburg Ladies Open. She secured a one stroke victory and afterwards said "It's honestly a dream come true - and to be playing so well so early in my career, I'm lost for words. It's just amazing and I can't wait for the rest of the season." [12] In May, Rhodes won her third consecutive tournament at the Dutch Ladies Open, securing a two stroke triumph. [13] In June 2025, Rhodes was given an invitation to make her major debut at the Women's PGA Championship at Fields Ranch East course in Texas. [14]
