Answer 1

i know at lot of scratch golfers but when they go to play in tournaments, regardless of the size of the tournament or anything, they choke. i think how you play under the pressure of many watching and other conditions will be the true test of your chances i think. being that your only 13 and so good, i think you have a lot of time to improve your chances and get seen

Answer 2

You should start playing in AJGA golf tournaments this summer.  It will prepare you for competition and put your skills on display in front of people.  Also, most college coaches recruit players and evaluate potential players during the summer AGJA tournament.  Based on your scores, I'd say that you have a chance, but you need to work hard and get some competitive experience.

Answer 3

Never give up on your dreams.  With those kind of scores at the age of 13, you have what sounds like a good foundation and understanding of the game.  If you can get a scholarship, you might want to go to a southern school, so you could work year round on your game.  Good luck.

Answer 4

Yes, you have a legitimate shot, just stay dedicated.  Womens golf is getting ever more competitive so its getting harder to get onto the LPGA but keep practicing.

Answer 5

Quite possibly yes but you'll enhance your chances if you realize that it's the short game and putting that separate the great players from the good ones.

Answer 6

You sound like you are really doing great for someone only 13 years old.  But your (or anyones) chances of making the LPGA tour are slim to none.  That doesn't mean you should give up though give it all you've got - it's just that there are so many good amateurs out there and only a relatively few spots on tour.  You've got five years to get there though so go for it!

Answer 7

You should definetly try but even the pros can't beat Lorena Ochoa who is doing great lately

Answer 8

well i dont know if i really should be the one answering your question considering im a guy but if you really try hard and practice every day youll definetly make it

Answer 9

Maybe!  You have to remain dedicated and not allow anything to get in the way of your goals.  Hopefully you can earn a college scholarship and go from there.
