Progress in the decade!?
Posted 10/11/2009 by Thomas ZembrowskiToday we offer a experiment.
Based on the results of the tournament EGA International Ladies Amateur Championship, which took place in the field of Amber Baltic Golf Club in Międzyzdroje in 2000, we'll see how it can change the level of play throughout the decade. Let's see where these girls arrived.
We will focus on the top ten (in the tournament was attended by 83 players)
1st Emma Duggleby - Already in 2000, was one of the most successful players. Besides winning dozens of individual titles Emma represents England in all possible women's teams almost without interruption since 1994. But I never went to zawodostwo. She works at a golf course as a secretary and managed by the local Pro-Shop.
2nd Tania Elosegui - In 2000, he had a 1.9 hcp which meant that it is a fantastic jumper, but this step was just the prelude. After many years of representing Spain in the team and individual tournaments Tania gave up amateur status in 2005. Since 2006 he plays in the Ladies European Tour where he earned more than half a million Euro. This season, she won a tournament, and five were still in the top three.
3rd Suzann Pettersen - This contestant is the best proof of how much can be done within a decade. After the tournament in Amberze Suzann began his career in 2001 joined the Ladies European Tour, in 2003 the LPGA. Since then, winning 10 tournaments and earned more than $ 6.5 million. For three consecutive seasons, is one of the 10 best players of the world.
T4. Helena Svensson - Swede fell to the ground and a little hard to find information about it. According to our investigation in 2001/2002 gave up amateur status. She tried her hand at the Ladies European Tour, where she was in 2004. Unfortunately it ended in the vicinity hundredth place (earned around 10,000 Euros) and are not received the card on the next season. Lack of any information on her fate suggests Svensson resignation of a career.
T4.Rebecca Hudson - When performed in Międzyzdroje account already had a dozen individual titles. Daily Telegraph awarded her the title of the player until the year three times in the years 1994.1995 and 1997.

In 2003 he landed in the Ladies European Tour where he has already won three tournaments and earned over 500,000 euros. In 2006 and 2008 was in the top ten contestants of the Old Continent.

The injury was sufficiently serious that Miriam's only this year trying to qualify for both the LPGA and LET.
