As Alex Albon navigates the twists and turns of the F1 circuit, a dedicated cheerleader stands at the edge, offering unwavering support. That cheerleader is none other than his girlfriend, Lily Muni He. Since his debut in the F1, Lily has stood by his side, waving the flag of encouragement for her beau. Hailing from China, Lily embarked on a journey with a golf club in hand at the tender age of 5, guided by her father’s passion for the sport. Her journey led her from amateur tournaments to professional triumphs.

Lily clinched victory at the 2015 Polo Junior Classic and the 2017 Minnesota Invitational as an amateur. Her dedication and prowess earned her a spot in the 2015 US Women’s Open, marking her arrival on the grand stage. Before fully embracing the greens, Lily pursued a master’s degree in communications. The Prasco Charity Championship in July 2018 became her first professional win. But it wasn’t just her talent on the golf course as Lily Muni He has etched her name in a new chapter of her career, one that brings together technology and her love for golf in an unprecedented way.
