Golf and High School

Dwyer started playing golf at the age of 13, when her father took her out to the driving range. She attended Punahou School, a private school in Oahu, Hawaii, where she was a member of the boys golf team, there being no girls team at the time. As well as golf, Dwyer also played soccer. By senior year, she had traveled to the mainland United States, to compete in some American Junior Golf Association tournaments.
