Nicki Guttler just shattered records—becoming the first woman ever to win two open shearing titles at one event, triumphing in both machine and blade categories at the Forbes Show, despite recovering from a serious back injury. Rising from childhood lessons with her mother, she’s defied odds in a male-dominated field where women make up less than 5% of the workforce. Inspired by her late grandmother and fueled by grit, Nicki’s victory isn’t just personal—it’s a bold statement for gender equality in shearing. Already a record-holder, she now aims to open doors for other women, proving they’re not “young girls” but elite competitors ready to dominate.
