How do I become part of the LPGA, what steps do I need to take?

Question

I want to know how to first achieve amateur status, and then how do I get on to the tour

Answer 1

go 2 the LPGA website

Answer 2

Not much info to go on - but you can look into Junior PGA events in your area (PGA.com) to get amateur tournament experience and work to get invited to the American Junior Golf Association (AJGA.com) tournaments in your area.  Once you can shoot par or better from the men's tees, you can sign up for the US Women's Amateur qualifying.  Our club hosted a regional qualifier to feed into the Women's Amateur being held in Oregon.  45 girls played for 5 spots over two days from the blue tees (6700 yards).  Winner shot 67, 69 and fifth place was 70, 72.  Highest score out there was an 87. These girls are good.  

Good luck.

Answer 3

Check out the LPGA.com website.

I think you have to sign up and put your name down, there will be max handicaps for different categories. This is how it works for the USGA mens

Answer 4

Just by playing the game, you have achieved amateur status.Getting on the LPGA tour is another story. You must go to the qualifying sessions which are usually offered at the end of the regular season. The LPGA will reveal how many with the lowest scores will qualify for the following season. You  will receive your card and are now eligible to compete. This will cost a few dollars and be prepared to face very good competition.
