This year Mother’s Day was especially sweet for golfer Allison Fouch, she tied for second in the Michelob ULTRA Open at Kingsmill. Her final prize money amounted to $138,548.
Last year Allison competed in 18 events on the Duramed Futures Tour and finished second on the Duramed Futures Tour season-ending money list, giving her exempt status for the 2008 LPGA season.
Allison’s road to the LPGA was neither fast nor easy. As a natural athlete, Allison competed in a number of sports throughout high school- but a knee injury prevented her from participating in anything other than golf. Her interest in golf grew over the years, and she competed at the colligate level for Michigan State before turning professional in 2004. For more information on Allison, visit www.lpga.com.
Her hard work has paid off, earning over $194,176 overall according to www.lpga.com. Allison believes she found herself and her golf game while on the Duramed Futures Tour last year. "Even if I won the lottery, I'd still be out here on the Duramed FUTURES Tour to get to where I want to be." she said. The players on this tour are serious about their golf game, and about winning.
