The now scratch golfer broke the women's course record twice in the same week, all the while sealing the 2020 club championship.
Roberts carded a 68 off the stick in the final round of the women's club championships and then three days later she was back out on the par-71 course and broke it again with a tidy four-under 67.
"During the round I knew I was playing quite well, but I didn't think I was on the way to beating the record," Roberts said.
"Afterwards I was very happy."
Roberts has been able to shave a few strokes off her handicap in recent years after plenty of work focusing on consistency with her golf swing and non-stop practice on the putting green.
The hardwork also paid off in recent weeks with Roberts securing the women's club championship.
She was able to seal the 2020 women's title with rounds of 75-72-68 (215).
Roberts also won the Gwen Simpson Trophy for her top putting performance (86 in total) during the club championships, in addition to the junior nett title.
The achievements are rewards for Roberts' hard work for remaining focused during a year that's been interrupted by lockdowns.
However, Roberts found a few ways to keep her swing in check while golf courses were off limits.
"I was hitting balls into a net in the shed and also a few shots over the back fence into the paddock," she said.
Looking ahead to 2021 Roberts plans to play pennant at Heritage Golf Club after missing out on competing this year due to COVID-19 restrictions.
Beyond next year, her eyes are set on the pathway to turning professional.
"It would be really fun to go over to America and play college golf," she said.
