After graduating from UCLA, Martin turned professional in 2005, and mainly played on the US Futures Tour until 2011. She earned full playing privileges on the US LPGA Tour in 2012. Her first LPGA Tour win came in a major championship, the 2014 Women's British Open, which she dramatically won with an eagle at the last hole.
Majors
Ricoh
The Ricoh Women's British Open (38th) (July 10-13). Second-placed Shanshan Feng (China) and Suzann Pettersen (Nor) finished 1 shot behind Martin (USA), who snatched victory with an eagle-three at the final hole. This was Martin's first win on a major tour. [Royal Birkdale GC, Southport, Merseyside].
The Masters: The 88th Masters Tournament at Augusta National sees LIV golfer Jon Rahm defend his title against the world’s best. Pressing hard will be world No.1 and 2022 champion Scottie Scheffler and world No.2 Rory McIlroy (April 11-14).
Chevron Championship: the women’s major championship season gets underway for the second year at its new Carlton Woods home outside Houston, Texas. World No.2 Lilia Vu defends (April 18-21).
Nelly Korda: records a perfect start to 2024 with four wins out of her last four appearances on the LPGA Tour, a feat last achieved by Lorena Ochoa in 2008. Korda's win at the T-Mobile Match Play brought up her 12th LPGA Tour victory.
Scottie Scheffler: narrowly missed out on matching Nelly Korda’s three-in-three, when he placed second at the Houston Open. This followed back-to-back wins at the Arnold Palmer Invitational and The Players. Like Korda, he remains comfortably ahead in the official world golf rankings.
Marco Simone Golf & Country Club: With a clubhouse that might befit a Roman Emperor, and a golf course to match, you can be sure of a memorable outing at Rome's most talked about golf facility.
Jim Fazio's original layout was much changed to create a modern Ryder Cup course ... now one of the Eternal City's (and Italy's) most revered.
