Dubai student Chiara Noja carries on her revival, showcasing an uplifting performance at the London Championship during the PIF event
Chiara Noja, the 19-year-old German-born golfer, has made a significant impact in the world of women's golf. Her career took off at a young age, making her debut on the Ladies European Tour (LET) at the Dubai Moonlight Classic in 2020, when she was just 14.
Noja's breakthrough came in 2021, when she won her maiden LET event at the Aramco Team Series – Jeddah. Since then, she has been actively competing on the LET and gaining experience in major events, including the ISPS Handa Women's Scottish Open in 2025. Her performance has earned her recognition as a Titleist Golf Ambassador.
However, Noja's journey has not been without challenges. She had a period of indifferent results and battled injury, causing her to tumble down the rankings to No 794 by the end of 2023. But her resilience shone through, and she has since shown signs of returning form, with her best result since her injury being a tie for 8th at the Aramco Korea Championship in May.
Noja's family moved from the UK to Dubai when she was older, a move that initially caused her to lose a year of schooling. Despite this, she has been able to juggle her time between golf and school, currently in the final phase of studying for her A-levels at FirstPoint School in Dubai. She is hopeful to finish her A-levels in January.
Noja is grateful for the support she has received from her headmaster and head of secondary at FirstPoint School. She lived around 15 minutes away from the Centurion Club in Hertfordshire, UK, between the ages of 7 and 14, where she honed her golf skills.
As she looks to the future, Noja expresses a desire to focus more on her golf career once her A-levels are completed. Her career progression is marked by early success as a teenager and steady involvement in high-profile LET tournaments. She continues to be a rising star in women's golf, with much anticipation for her future performances.
