Bio Update: Nikki has continued to stay involved with her acting and golfing career. She made an appearance in a commercial for the USGA (which ran extensively during the U.S. Open), and is currently a finalist for the 2006 ReMax Long Drive Championships.
The Big BreakV Bio: Nikki is the only contestant on The Big Break V that had not competed in a professional golf tournament prior to her appearance in the show. A penchant for hitting it long qualified her for the RE/MAX World Long Drive Championship at 295 yards. A fairly late-bloomer in competitive golf, Nikki played as a youngster but never competed seriously. She gave up the game for a time while she pursued other interests. She picked the game back up five years ago when she enrolled in college and decided to try to make the women's golf team at the College of Canyons, a community college in Valencia, Calif. She not only made the team, but served as the team captain for both years. Nikki says she auditioned for The Big Break V as a way to expose herself to intense competition and, possibly, jump-start a career in the game.
The Big Break V Results: Nikki was eliminated in the third episode.
