Golf Star Alexandra Swayne Showcases US Virgin Islands

Professional golfer Alexandra Swayne says she is excited to team up with the U.S. Virgin Islands Department of Tourism in 2023 as an official ambassador.

Alexandra Swayne will lend her prodigious talents to the beautiful Caribbean destination with digital and social media promotion, advertising, brand awareness and branded content creation. It will also bring more awareness of the exceptional golf courses and facilities in addition to the natural beauty of the islands.

Joseph Boschulte, Commissioner of the USVI Tourism Department, said: “We are delighted to have Alexandra on board as one of our official ambassadors. His liveliness and natural leadership will help USVI shine as a golf destination for all ages and talents. Alexandra will participate in events, advertising campaigns, marketing and promotional materials, live streams and interviews, and events while showcasing the natural beauty and culture of the islands.

Alexandra Swayne started golfing at age 14 as part of the junior program of the prestigious US Virgin Islands Golf Federation. Then, just eight days after celebrating her 21st birthday, Swayne qualified for her first US Women’s Open shooting 141-3 under in Atlanta.

This up-and-coming and energetic pro joined the Ladies European Tour in 2022, but still enjoys returning to the US Virgin Islands where she runs youth golf clinics and practices her game. “Promoting the USVI is such a great opportunity for me because I can combine my love for my hometown and its beautiful courses (there are four on the USVI) with what I love to do, which is to play golf.”

This year will be exciting for the USVI. Already, Conde Nast Traveler editors have placed USVI at the top of their best places to go in 2023, citing the islands’ new hotels, resort openings, national park, and carnival festivals. Additionally, in 2022, Conde Nast Traveler ranked USVI in its prestigious Readers’ Choice Awards as the best islands in the world.
