The existence of women makes the world more beautiful , and by the same token women golfers are the most beautiful scenery on the golf course.

When you think of famous female golfers, you might think of Michelle Wie. Michelle Wie gained the most attention when, at the age of 15, she became the first female golfer to qualify for a USGA

national men’s tournament. On October 5, 2005, she announced that she was going professional, reportedly signing contracts with Sony and Nike worth more than $10,000,000 per year. She also

before becoming a professional golfer in 1992. She is now one of the most successful female golfers in history, having won 69 official LPGA tournaments including 10 majors.
