Danielle Masters set to turn
pro:
21 June 2004
Danielle Masters set to
turn pro, following playing for her country in the
Curtis Cup. Danni the 21 year old from Tudor
Park, Kent has stated she will turn professional the
moment she hits her first ball at the English Open
on the Chart Hills course near Biddenden.
Having recently made the headlines
when more than 8,000 spectators watched at the Curtis
Cup, Formby as Annie Thurman (USA) went two up on
Danni with two to play in the last of the singles.
Danni smiled to the last green under immense pressure
as they closed the play. This is not the first time
Danni has played at this level as she holed the winning
putt in the Vagliano Championship 2003.
Having reached the final stages
of last years Tour School Danni will attempt to qualify
for the European and US pro tour circuits, ultimately
she would like to join the United States School in
December.
Danni said “I would not be
in this position without ELGA’s structured support
and the funding that has been available to me from
Sport England. I would like to thank them all for
the years of encouragement and the opportunities they
have given me”.
All at the English Ladies’
Golf Association wish Danni the very best on the professional
circuit and we look forward to following her progress
for years to come.
