Bio:
Amy first made history by becoming the first person with Down syndrome to play in the Arizona High School Girls Golf Division I State Championship. She went on to become the first person with Down syndrome to receive a collegiate athletic scholarship, and, in 2021, she made history yet again by becoming the first person with Down syndrome to compete in a national collegiate championship.
In 2022, Amy earned a silver medal at the Special Olympics USA Games and competed in the Inaugural U.S. Adaptive Open a month later. She will compete in the 2023 Special Olympics World Games and 2023 U.S. Adaptive Open in July as well.
Amy’s natural talent, charisma and determination have torn down barriers and opened incredible doors for her as she advocates for inclusion for people with disabilities. Rhonda Rice of the National Down Syndrome Congress said of Amy, "Here is an example of a young lady with Down syndrome and look at everything she's accomplished. Amy is an example of inclusion. Just give her the chance.”
I Got This Foundation:
As a representative of Special Olympics Arizona, Amy was invited to play the 16th hole at TPC Scottsdale with Gary
Woodland during the practice round at the 2019 WM Phoenix Open. After hitting her tee shot into a greenside bunker, she parred the hole in front of a roaring crowd, confidently stating, “I got this!” The video capturing that moment has over 60 million views and is the most watched video in PGA TOUR history. "I’ve been blessed to do a lot of cool things on the golf course but that is, by far, the coolest thing I’ve ever experienced,” said Woodland.
Amy and her family later launched the I Got This Foundation. Their mission is to promote golf instruction and playing opportunities for people with Down syndrome and other intellectual disabilities. Amy continues to demonstrate to the world what a determined athlete with self-confidence and a positive attitude can achieve.

Bio:
As residents of Kapolei Golf Club in Hawaii, Allisen Corpuz began golfing at only four years old with her father and brother. At age 10, she became the youngest ever competitor in a USGA Championship at the 2008 Women's Amateur Public Links. After representing Hawaii in the 2014 Asia Pacific Junior Cup and winning the 2016 Hawaii State High School Championship, she began her college career at University of Southern California. There she earned both an undergraduate and master's degree while also establishing herself as one of the most talented amateurs in the country.
Allisen joined the LPGA Tour in 2022 and collected three top-10 finishes in her rookie season including second at the ISPS Handa World Invitational and third at the Pelican Women’s Championship. In 2023, she earned her impressive first win at the U.S. Women’s Open at Pebble Beach, represented Team USA in the Solheim Cup, and finished third on the Official Money List. In the 2024 Solheim Cup, she went 3-1-0 and helped lead the U.S. to victory.
Despite her success, Allisen remains one of the most humble and genuine individuals on Tour. Her magnetic smile, love for young fans and calm personality have won over the golf community, yet she remains a fierce competitor who continues to put herself in contention each week against the world’s best.

Lauren Coughlin is an accomplished professional golfer celebrated for her fierce competitive spirit and unwavering dedication. With All-American honors from the University of Virginia and an Epson Tour victory, she secured her place on the LPGA Tour in 2018.
Her resilience was crucial, as her breakthrough on the LPGA Tour would not come until 2024.

With an outstanding resume and the humility and professionalism that come from experience, she has quickly established herself as a respected figure in the golf world.

As a quiet young girl from Houston, Gurleen did not have many examples or peers in golf that shared her Indian heritage. While she was initially drawn to the sport for its individual aspect, she began to develop rich and meaningful relationships through the game as she grew older. Gurleen found commonalities with her teammates and enjoyed success alongside them as she built an impressive amateur resume for herself. During her time at Baylor, Gurleen was a four-time All-American and became the first player in school history to be named to the U.S. Palmer Cup Team.
Gurleen will join the LPGA Tour in 2024 after an impressive T5 finish at the 2023 Q-Series. As she lives out her dream, she hopes to encourage young Indian girls and other minorities across the globe to follow their passions as well, despite where they’ve come from or what obstacles stand in their way. Years from now, as a fixture in women’s golf, this rising star may very well be the role model that she always longed for to the next generation of golfers around the world.

Brittany’s success as both an amateur and a professional can be attributed to her natural athleticism and unmatched work ethic on and off the course. Coming from the illustrious Duke Golf program where she won six times in only two years, Brittany went on to become the first ever LPGA winner from Duke University. Brittany won the 2012 Manulife LPGA Classic in a four-player playoff where she had to birdie four consecutive holes to win. In 2016, Brittany reached the pinnacle of women’s golf by winning the biggest, most prestigious tournament in women’s golf - the US Women’s Open. 11 years earlier, Brittany competed in the 2005 US Women’s Open and earned an impressive T2 finish as an amateur.
What sets Brittany apart even more is her knack for being the most well-liked person in the room. Week in and week out, the pro-am group paired with her can be seen having a blast, and you would be hard-pressed to find a fellow Tour player that doesn’t love Brittany Lang. You can tell by how many times she has been asked to be in a wedding party. Brittany’s heart is as big as the state she calls home, and her easy-going personality has a way of making everyone feel like an old friend. How many major champions can you say that about?

With 13 career LPGA wins, over 100 career top-10s, 4 Solheim Cup appearances, the title of Team USA Solheim Cup Assistant Captain in 2021 and Captain in 2023 and 2024, and a T4 finish at the 2016 Rio Olympics, Stacy already has one of the most prolific careers in LPGA history. Yet, she refuses to take her foot off the gas, and continues to work each day to improve her game and contend for championships each and every week.
Her success is undeniable, but that’s not what makes her the best story in golf. It’s what she has had to overcome in order to get there that separates her from everyone else. Stacy Lewis’s story is much more than just a golf story. She’s a medical-miracle story, a stay-in-school story, an overcoming hardship story, a giving back to children story, an athlete’s story, a mother’s story, and an inspirational story. In short, Stacy Lewis is as much a compelling human-interest story as she is a golf story.

Bio:
Brittany’s humble upbringing has kept her firmly rooted despite her tremendous success. As a a two-time major champion, eight-time winner, six-time U.S. Solheim Cup Team member, and 2024 Assistant Captain to the winning U.S. Solheim Cup Team, she still enjoys hunting, fishing and playing Texas Hold-em with friends. During the 2013 Pure Silk Bahamas LPGA Classic, Brittany even took time to fish on the ninth fairway of a flooded Ocean Club Golf Course. You won’t find another player with this combination of unreal athleticism and completely genuine personality.
Nicknamed “Bam Bam” at an early age, Brittany has always been known for her incredibly long drives. However, she doesn’t get nearly enough credit for her clutch play when it matters most. Of her eight victories, five have come with a one-shot margin of victory, and two have come in sudden death playoffs. Today, Brittany plays for her two daughters, Emery and Sophia, and serves as an inspiration for women everywhere that you don’t have to choose between having a career and being a mother.

Ruixin Liu is no stranger to professional golf, having competed in her first event at the Epson Tour’s Volvik Championship at only 14 years of age. She continued competing as an amateur on the professional circuit in one of more events each year until turning professional in 2017.
In 2018, Liu experienced a medical scare on the course where her heart rate spiked to 140 BPM. After extensive testing, doctors were able to determine that she is allergic to 13 different weeds and grasses commonly found on golf courses in the U.S. Despite the setback and the obstacles standing between her and a career in professional golf, Liu earned four top-three finishes that year, including two victories in the final four weeks of the season. She was named the Epson Tour’s 2018 Player of the Year, and secured her LPGA Tour card for the 2019 season.
In her spare time on the road, Liu spends time volunteering at pet shelters with several friends who share a love for animals. During the offseason, she returns to China where she enjoys spending time with family, and riding horses – a hobby she hopes to one day pursue professionally as well.

Born and raised in Rogers, Arkansas, Brooke Matthews spent her childhood dreaming about one day attending the state school in her backyard. After being introduced to the game of golf at 12 years old, she quickly fell in love with the sport and began entering junior golf tournaments to hone her skills. Her drive, natural athleticism, and impressive junior golf resume landed her on the University of Arkansas’ radar, and she joined their prestigious golf program in 2017.
During her time at Arkansas, Brooke claimed her place as one of the top amateur golfers in the world. She set the record for the NCAA’s lowest 54-hole scoring record with 25-under at the 2021 Cougar Classic, breaking the previous record by a remarkable six strokes.

As an amateur, Jill was one of very few people, male or female, to have won both the U.S. Amateur Championship as well as the U.S. Public Links – the two most prestigious amateur titles in all of golf. With her win at the 2022 U.S. Senior Women’s Open, Jill became just the sixth golfer in history to claim three separate USGA titles, joining Arnold Palmer, Jack Nicklaus, Tiger Woods, JoAnne Carner and Carol Semple Thompson. Although 28 years had elapsed since her last victory, her performance at the USSWO goes to show that she still has the ability to win tournaments and add to her already illustrious golf career.
With her magnetic personality, easy-going disposition and looks and build of a runway model, Jill has always stood out from the crowd of professional female athletes. She currently resides in Dallas, Texas with her husband and two children where she serves as a golf instructor.

Caley’s love for golf began at age seven when her brother took an interest in the sport. Though her family knew little about golf, her mother drove them to a local course in Bristol, where a junior clinic was being held for just one dollar. From then on, they returned every Monday, practicing chipping and putting for candy. It was love at first swing.
Since then, Caley has become one of the top female amateurs in the world. With eight individual titles, two Curtis Cup appearances, a European Ladies Team Championship victory, and a career-high No. 6 ranking in the World Amateur Golf Rankings, she has proven herself a force on the course. She earned LPGA Tour status for 2025 through the Q-Series after starting in Pre-Qualifying.
As she begins her professional career, Caley aspires to win a major and represent England in the Solheim Cup. Her early experiences in golf have also inspired her to give back. She dreams of opening a facility in England to make the game more accessible to young golfers and help them pursue their own dreams, just as she has.

It was a ten-foot putt that, if missed, would have closed out the 2015 Solheim Cup for the European team. Instead, Gerina made what one teammate called, “the most clutch putt in the history of golf” and led the U.S. Solheim Cup team to the largest comeback win of all time.
Since arriving on the LPGA Tour in 2010, Gerina has had 40 top-10s, and has represented the United States in the 2016 Rio Olympics and International Crown, as well as three Solheim Cups. While competing full-time, Gerina was consistently one of the longest players on tour and earned her place as one of the top players in the world of women’s golf. Not bad for someone who only took up golf at the age of 15.
As a guest commentator on Golf Channel, she offers a unique perspective as both a mother and an active, established LPGA Tour player. Her combination of power, beauty and character set her apart both on and off the course and have made her a beloved presence on Tour for many years.

Malia Nam’s journey into professional golf is one of drive, determination and perseverance. Malia was raised by a single mother in Hawaii with limited resources or access to golfing opportunities. When Malia was six years old, her mother gifted her a few clubs from storage and enlisted her in the same golf program where Michelle Wie got her start. Malia’s competitive spirit fueled her to succeed and propelled her to a successful junior golf career with three OIA Golf Championships and a spot in the 2014 U.S. Women’s Amateur.
After a breakout freshman season at USC where she was named Pac-12 Freshman of the Year, Malia required a hip surgery to correct an ongoing issue that was inhibiting her on and off the course. She overcame more than eight months of rehabilitation to make a strong return to college golf. In 2023, she entered the LPGA Qualifying Tournament and battled her way through all three stages to secure her LPGA Tour card for 2024. As she begins her professional career, her story serves as an inspiration for young children in Hawaii and around the world to overcome any obstacles in pursuit of their dreams.
