Pressel closes out amateur career with victory

Filed under: PGA / LPGA Tour — Joey @ 10:30 pm

Next year should be a fascinating one for the LPGA, with teens Michelle Wie and Morgan Pressel joining the tour to do battle with Rookie of the Year and fellow teen golfer Paula Creamer.

ESPN reports that Morgan Pressel closes out amateur career with victory. A quote:

Morgan Pressel closed out her amateur career with a victory Wednesday, making a 10-foot putt on the second playoff hole to win her third straight Florida high school girls 1A tournament title.

The 17-year-old Pressel, who finished second at the U.S. Women’s Open and won the U.S. Women Amateur this summer, represented Boca Raton’s St. Andrew’s School. She defeated Vicky Hurst of Holy Trinity Episcopal (Melbourne) in the playoff.
