WATCH: Topeka native and KU grad Abby Glynn on K-Nation

LAWRENCE (KSNT) - Abby Glynn didn't plan to spend countless hours on golf for several years.

The Topeka native picked up the clubs more and more often as she began high school thanks to a suggestion from her dad.

"He was like 'You have some clubs. You went to junior golf as a kid, go try that,'" Glynn recalled. "It was rough at the beginning... but there was a glimpse of hope in there and then I kind of fell in love with it after that."

Glynn went on to golf for KU, after graduating from Washburn Rural.
