Nicole Robertson: Swedish League Top Scorer Rides to Offseason Training in Temecula

Nicole Robertson finished last season as the top goal scorer in her Swedish league and came home to Temecula to train. In Episode 4 of The Athlete's Commute, she hops in the car and takes us through one of the most self-driven paths to the pros you'll hear.

With no agent and barely any game film, Nicole created a LinkedIn, posted her own training videos, and networked her way into her first professional contract in Denmark, leaving university behind to do it. What followed was a career spanning Denmark, Scotland, and Sweden, and a lifestyle she's committed enough to that she's four years into earning Swedish citizenship.

We get into the real differences between Division 1 college soccer and the tactical European game, her five-minute electric scooter commute to the stadium, finishing her doctorate mid-season, and why leading the league in goals still felt bittersweet when her team finished fifth.

Oh, and what's in her bag? Sour candy. She'll explain.
