She plays mainly on the U.S.-based LPGA Tour, and also turns out once or twice a year on the ALPG Tour in her home country. She is a member of the World Golf Hall of Fame. She has 41 wins on the LPGA Tour, more than any other active player.
Key Information
Early life and amateur career
[edit]Webb was born in Ayr, Queensland. She was a member of the Australian Amateur team, making six international appearances from 1992 to 1994, including a 1994 appearance in the Espirito Santo Trophy World Amateur Golf Team Championships.[2] This was the year she became the Australian Stroke Play Champion[3]
Professional career
[edit]Webb began her professional golfing career in 1994 playing on the Ladies European Tour, where she finished second at the Women's Australian Open,[3] and the Futures Tour in the U.S., where she won one tournament.[4] In 1995 she became the youngest ever winner of the Weetabix Women's British Open in her rookie season in Europe,[3] prior to it being classed as an LPGA major, and was European Rookie of the Year. She qualified for the LPGA Tour after she finished second at the LPGA Final Qualifying Tournament, despite playing with a broken bone in her wrist.[4]
In 1996 Webb won her first LPGA tournament in her second LPGA start at the HealthSouth Inaugural, on the fourth hole of a sudden death playoff. She won three other tournaments and became the first LPGA player to win $1 million mark in a single season, topping the year end money list.[5] She was also the 1996 LPGA Rookie of the Year.[4]
In 1997 Webb won three times on the LPGA Tour including another win at the Weetabix Women's British Open, won her first Vare Trophy[6] and was voted 1997 ESPY Best Female Golfer.[7] In 1999 Webb won her first major championship at the du Maurier Ltd. Classic and won her first LPGA Tour Player of the Year award.[8]
Webb also took part in the largest playoff in LPGA Tour history at the 1999 Jamie Farr Kroger Classic.[9] Se Ri Pak birdied the first sudden death playoff hole to defeat Webb, Mardi Lunn, Carin Koch, Sherri Steinhauer, and Kelli Kuehne.[10]
In 2000, Webb won two more major championships, following up her win at the Nabisco Championship with a win at the U.S. Women's Open. This gained her a second consecutive Rolex Player of the Year title and Vare Trophy, and she topped the money list, missing out on a chance to become the LPGA's first single-season $2 million winner by taking a mid season break to return home to Australia to run with the Olympic torch.[11] Teamed with Rachel Hetherington representing Australia she won the Women's World Cup in Malaysia,[12] was awarded the preeminent sport award in Australia, the Dawn Fraser Award.[13] and was named Female Player of the Year by the Golf Writers Association of America.[14]
She successfully defended her U.S. Women's Open title in 2001 and won the LPGA Championship, to become the youngest winner of the LPGA Career Grand Slam.[15] She teamed with David Duval to play against Annika Sörenstam and Tiger Woods in a made-for-TV Battle at Bighorn between the two best male and two best female players in the world. At the time, it provided women's golf its largest audience ever.[16] Webb's win at the 2002 Women's British Open, which had become an LPGA major in 2001, meant she completed a Super Career Grand Slam – every available major championship in women's golf in her career.[17]
Webb then suffered a three-year slump. She collected just two LPGA wins in the next two years, and in 2005 had a best LPGA finish of tied sixth[18] although she did team up with Rachel Hetherington to represent Australia at the Women's World Cup of Golf[19] and won her fifth ANZ Ladies Masters title back home in Australia.[20]
Webb qualified for entry to the World Golf Hall of Fame in 2000, but was not eligible for induction until she had played ten LPGA Tour events in each of ten seasons. She met this criterion on 9 June 2005 when she completed the first round of the LPGA Championship.[21] At age 30, she became the youngest living person ever to enter the Hall of Fame,[15] and kept that distinction until 2007, when fellow LPGA star Se Ri Pak was inducted.
Webb staged a comeback season in 2006. In the final round at the Kraft Nabisco Championship she holed a 116-yard shot from the fairway to eagle the 18th hole, and then birdied the same hole in a sudden-death playoff to beat Lorena Ochoa and win her second Kraft Nabisco Championship.[22] She won four other tournaments including the Evian Masters[23] and Mizuno Classic.[24] Her 2006 Kraft Nabisco win took her into the top ten of the Women's World Golf Rankings for the first time since they were introduced in February 2006.
Her 41 LPGA Tour victories places her tied for 10th with Babe Zaharias on the list of players with the most career LPGA tournament wins[25] and first among all active players.

View on GrokipediaEarly life and amateur career
Early life
Karrie Webb was born on December 21, 1974, in Ayr, a small town in Queensland, Australia.[6] She grew up as the eldest of three daughters to Robert and Evelyn Webb, both avid golfers whose passion for the sport, shared with her maternal grandparents, introduced her to the game from a young age and provided strong familial encouragement.[7][8] Webb first experimented with plastic golf clubs at age four before receiving her initial set of real clubs on her eighth birthday, after which she began regular play at the local Ayr Golf Club.[8][2] Her early exposure extended to junior competitions starting around that time, where she quickly showed promise by securing her first trophy in her debut event.[9] At age 14, seeking advanced training, Webb relocated from Ayr to Brisbane to participate in junior golf camps, initially commuting via lengthy Greyhound bus rides before settling there as a teenager. After the move, she teamed up with coach Kelvin Haller, who played a key role in shaping her early development.[6][8] She attended Ayr State High School, balancing a solid academic record with intensive golf practice, often missing school days for camps and events without compromising her studies.[10][6]Amateur achievements
Webb represented Australia in international amateur golf competitions on six occasions between 1992 and 1994, showcasing her emerging talent on the global stage.[2] These appearances included the Queen Sirikit Cup—Asia's premier women's amateur team event—in 1992, 1993, and 1994, where she contributed scores such as 214 in the 1994 edition.[11][12] She also competed in the 1994 Espirito Santo Trophy, the women's World Amateur Team Championship, further highlighting her selection among the nation's top juniors.[1] Domestically, Webb achieved significant success in major Australian amateur events, culminating in her victory at the 1994 Australian Women's Amateur Stroke Play Championship.[8] This win, held at Brisbane Golf Club, underscored her precision and consistency as a stroke player.[7] She also demonstrated her competitive edge by finishing runner-up as an amateur in the 1994 Alpine Australian Ladies Masters, a professional tour event that allowed her to test her skills against established pros.[7] These accomplishments, including multiple national team selections and a marquee stroke play title, positioned Webb as one of Australia's most promising young golfers, leading her to turn professional in late 1994 at the age of 19.[7][13]Professional career
LPGA Tour career
Karrie Webb turned professional in 1994 at the age of 19, quickly achieving success on the ALPG Tour with multiple victories that paved the way for her international career.[2][14] She earned her LPGA Tour membership for the 1996 season after strong performances, including wins on the ALPG circuit, and made an immediate impact as a rookie by securing four victories and topping the money list with earnings of $1,002,000, becoming the first LPGA player to surpass $1 million in a season, earning her the Louise Suggs Rolex Rookie of the Year award.[2][15][16] Webb's breakthrough came in 1999, when she won six LPGA Tour events, including her first major at the du Maurier Classic, and recorded 22 top-10 finishes while setting a scoring average record with the Vare Trophy.[1][17] This dominant season earned her the Rolex Player of the Year honors and propelled her to the world No. 1 ranking, marking her rapid ascent among the tour's elite.[1][7] From 2000 to 2002, Webb enjoyed a period of unparalleled dominance, capturing 13 LPGA victories, including four majors: the 2000 Kraft Nabisco Championship and U.S. Women's Open, the 2001 McDonald's LPGA Championship—which completed her Career Grand Slam—and the 2002 Weetabix Women's British Open, achieving the rare Super Career Grand Slam by winning all five then-recognized majors.[2][18][19] She repeated as Player of the Year in 2000 and won the Vare Trophy again in 2000, solidifying her status as one of the tour's most consistent performers.[2][18] In later years, Webb faced challenges including burnout and physical setbacks, leading to a reduced schedule after 2010 as she managed her health and explored interests beyond full-time competition.[20][14] She staged a notable comeback in 2006 with a win at the Kraft Nabisco Championship, her seventh and final major, defeating Lorena Ochoa in a playoff after an eagle on the 18th hole.[2][21] By 2018, Webb officially transitioned to a part-time schedule on the LPGA Tour, making occasional appearances in majors and select events through 2023, such as the U.S. Women's Open.[22][20][23] Over her LPGA career spanning 1996 to 2023, Webb amassed 41 victories, tying her for 10th on the all-time wins list alongside Babe Zaharias, and earned more than $20 million in prize money.[2][1]Senior professional career
Karrie Webb became eligible for senior professional tours upon turning 50 on December 21, 2024.[24] This milestone allowed her to compete in age-restricted events, drawing on her extensive LPGA Tour experience to transition into senior competition.[7] Webb made her debut on the senior circuit at the 2025 U.S. Senior Women's Open, held August 21–24 at San Diego Country Club in Chula Vista, California.[25] Entering as a fully exempt player due to her prior major victories, she posted rounds of 73, 76, 77, and 72 for a total of 298 (+6), securing a tie for 11th place.[26] In her final round interview, Webb reflected on the event's challenges, describing her game as "like a box of chocolates—you never know what you're gonna get," while expressing satisfaction with her competitive return despite some inconsistency.[27] In Australia, Webb remained involved with senior-level initiatives through the WPGA Tour of Australasia, where the Karrie Webb Cup honors her legacy; the 2025 Australian WPGA Championship, scheduled for March 6–9 at Sanctuary Cove Golf and Country Club, was cancelled due to Cyclone Alfred.[28][29] The event, co-sanctioned by the Ladies European Tour, would have highlighted her ongoing influence on the domestic professional landscape.[30] Additionally, she participated in the JLPGA Legends Championship MEIJI YASUDA Cup in October 2025, finishing tied for 16th at 2-under par.[31] Beyond competition, Webb continued her contributions to Australian golf development in 2025, particularly through mentoring the nation's emerging "golden generation" of players.[32] She has long guided talents like three-time major winner Minjee Lee, whom she mentored from Lee's junior days and who credited Webb's support during her 2022 U.S. Women's Open victory.[4] Through the Karrie Webb Series scholarship program, she selected two high-performance squad members in 2025 for personalized training, fostering the next wave of Australian female golfers.[33] In October, Australia, represented by Lee and Hannah Green, won the LPGA International Crown with an upset victory over the United States, underscoring Webb's mentoring impact on players like Lee.[34]Professional wins
LPGA Tour wins
Karrie Webb amassed 41 victories on the LPGA Tour from 1995 to 2014, establishing her as one of the most successful players in the tour's history. Her debut season in 1996 was particularly impressive, as she secured four wins, including her first at the HealthSouth Inaugural on January 21, 1996, at the Lake Buena Vista course in Walt Disney World, Orlando, Florida, where she prevailed in a playoff against Jane Geddes.[2][35] This victory marked the beginning of a dominant run, highlighted by her record-setting 16 consecutive top-10 finishes in 1999.[2] Webb's most prolific year was 2000, when she captured seven titles, tying the LPGA record for most wins in a season and becoming the first player since 1990 to achieve that feat; these included the Nabisco Championship (March 6–12, Mission Hills Country Club, Rancho Mirage, California) and the U.S. Women's Open (July 6–9, Cherry Hills Country Club, Cherry Hills Village, Colorado).[2] In 1999, she won six events, showcasing her consistency with victories like the du Maurier Classic (August 5–8, The Kingsway Club, Etobicoke, Ontario, Canada). The following year, 2001, saw her complete the career Grand Slam with three wins, including back-to-back U.S. Women's Opens (July 5–8, Merion Golf Club, Ardmore, Pennsylvania).[2][18] After a quieter period, Webb returned to form in 2006 with five victories, earning over $2 million in a single season—a milestone achieved by only three players in LPGA history at the time—including the Kraft Nabisco Championship (March 16–19, Mission Hills Country Club, Rancho Mirage, California).[2] Her later wins demonstrated longevity, such as the 2013 ShopRite LPGA Classic (June 28–30, Seaview Bay Course, Galloway, New Jersey), her 40th LPGA title.[2] In 2014, she closed out her LPGA win tally with two events, including the JTBC Founders Cup (March 13–16, Divosta Build Golf Club at CW 44 Farms, Scottsdale, Arizona).[2] The following table summarizes all 41 LPGA Tour wins chronologically by year, with tournament names (majors noted where applicable).

International and other tour wins
Karrie Webb's professional career extended far beyond the LPGA Tour, where she amassed victories on several international circuits, some co-sanctioned with the LPGA, bolstering her global reputation and contributing to her overall tally of 56 professional wins. These successes, particularly in her formative years, allowed her to gain diverse experience on varied courses and against international competition, facilitating her transition to elite-level play.[7] On the ALPG Tour, Webb recorded 13 victories from 1994 to 2013, establishing her as a dominant force in Australian professional golf during her early career. Her debut professional triumph came at the 1994 Australian Ladies Masters, a pivotal win that launched her pro journey at age 19. She later added key titles like the 2000 Toyota Australian Open and the 2001 ANZ Australian Masters, often defending events multiple times and showcasing her consistency on home soil. The ALPG Tour played a foundational role in honing her skills amid familiar conditions before she ventured abroad.[37][2][36] Webb achieved 15 wins on the Ladies European Tour (LET), beginning with her rookie season and spanning her career. Highlights include the 1995 Weetabix Women's British Open, where she claimed victory by 10 strokes in her professional debut, and the 2013 ISPS Handa Ladies European Masters, a late-career addition that affirmed her enduring prowess. The LET provided essential exposure to European links-style golf and high-stakes international fields, earning her Rookie of the Year honors in 1995 and solidifying her status as a world-class talent.[37][2][36] Her three victories on the LPGA of Japan Tour further demonstrated her adaptability in Asia, with wins at the 2000 and 2001 Nichirei World Ladies Cup highlighting her precision in team and individual formats. These achievements expanded her competitive footprint and contributed to her ranking among the era's top players.[36][37] Webb also secured one win on the Symetra Tour (formerly the Futures Tour) in 1995 at the Golden Flake Golden Ocala Futures Classic, her first U.S. professional victory, alongside two miscellaneous other wins. These early non-LPGA successes, with some events co-sanctioned and counted across tours, contributed to her total of 56 professional wins.[2][38]Major championships
Major wins
Karrie Webb's major championship victories spanned from 1999 to 2006, marking her as one of the most dominant players in LPGA history during that era. These seven wins, achieved across all five major tournaments available in her career, underscored her versatility, mental toughness, and technical prowess, propelling her to the LPGA Hall of Fame in 2005 and cementing her legacy as the youngest player to complete the Career Grand Slam at age 26. Her successes came during a period of intense international competition, where she often outpaced legends like Annika Sörenstam and Se Ri Pak, while setting multiple records for scoring and earnings.[2] Webb claimed her first major at the 1999 du Maurier Classic, held at Priddis Greens Golf Club in Alberta, Canada. Entering the final round five strokes behind leader Laura Davies, Webb mounted a dramatic comeback with a 6-under-par 66, featuring birdies on three of the last four holes to finish at 11-under 277 for a two-stroke victory over Davies. This win, her first in a major after several near-misses, highlighted her resilience and putting skill under pressure, launching a breakout season where she secured six LPGA titles and set a scoring average record of 69.43. It established Webb as an emerging force, transitioning her from a promising rookie to a major contender.[39] In 2000, Webb captured back-to-back majors with victories at the Nabisco Dinah Shore and the U.S. Women's Open, showcasing her wire-to-wire dominance and consistency. At the Nabisco Dinah Shore (now the Chevron Championship) at Mission Hills Country Club in Rancho Mirage, California, she led from start to finish, carding rounds of 69-70-67-69 for a 15-under 275, winning by 10 strokes over Emilee Klein. This performance included her second career LPGA hole-in-one on the fifth hole in the final round, earning her $250,000 from the Nabisco Grand Slam Challenge bonus for multiple major wins that year. Just months later, at the U.S. Women's Open at Merit Club in Libertyville, Illinois, Webb overcame a final-round 73 to win by five strokes at 6-under 282, her third major overall and the key to qualifying for the LPGA Hall of Fame eligibility. These triumphs in 2000 propelled her career earnings past $5 million and $6 million thresholds faster than any player before, solidifying her as the world's top-ranked golfer.[2][40] Webb extended her major mastery into 2001 with wins at the LPGA Championship and a historic consecutive U.S. Women's Open title, a feat achieved by only seven players in the tournament's history. At the McDonald's LPGA Championship at DuPont Country Club in Wilmington, Delaware, she fired a final-round 68 to finish at 8-under 276, two strokes ahead of Laura Diaz and the only player under par for the week. This victory completed her Career Grand Slam, making her the youngest to win all four then-traditional majors at age 26. Later that year, defending her U.S. Women's Open at Pine Needles Lodge & Golf Club in Southern Pines, North Carolina, Webb dominated with a wire-to-wire win, closing with a 71 for an 11-under 277 and an eight-stroke margin over Se Ri Pak. These back-to-back major achievements in 2001, amid three total LPGA wins that season, marked her peak dominance and made her the first woman to earn over $1 million in a single year.[18][41] Webb's 2002 victory at the Women's British Open elevated her accomplishments to unprecedented heights, completing the Super Career Grand Slam by winning all five majors contested during her era. Played at Turnberry in Scotland, she trailed by three entering the final round but shot a 6-under 66 to reach 15-under 273, securing a two-stroke win over Michelle Ellis and Paula Martí. This marked her third British Open title (including non-major wins in 1995 and 1997) and made her, at 27 years, 7 months, and 21 days, the youngest player to claim six majors. The achievement not only highlighted her adaptability to links-style golf but also positioned her among an elite group, including Patty Berg and Louise Suggs, as one of only four women to win every major available in their careers.[42] Her seventh and final major came at the 2006 Kraft Nabisco Championship, a testament to her enduring competitiveness after a brief slump. At Mission Hills Country Club, Webb staged the largest comeback in major history, overcoming a seven-shot deficit with a final-round 66 that included an eagle on the 72nd hole from 178 yards, forcing a sudden-death playoff against Lorena Ochoa. She birdied the first extra hole (par-5 18th) to win at 12-under 276. This victory, her second at the event, reignited her career trajectory, leading to further wins and underscoring her clutch performance in high-stakes moments even into her early 30s.[43]Major results timeline
Karrie Webb's performances in the LPGA major championships are documented year by year below, focusing on the majors contested during her career. From 1996 to 2000, these included the ANA Inspiration (formerly Kraft Nabisco Championship), the Women's PGA Championship (formerly LPGA Championship), the du Maurier Classic, and the U.S. Women's Open.

- The Evian Championship became an LPGA major in 2013; the 2006 win was at the Evian Masters, a non-major at the time but included for context as a significant international event. The du Maurier Classic was an LPGA major from 1979 to 2000. Pre-2001 Women's British Open results are for the event but not as a major.[18][46]
Major championships summary
Karrie Webb amassed a total of seven major championship victories across five different events during her career, a feat that established her as one of the most accomplished players in LPGA history.[1][46] These wins spanned the du Maurier Classic (1 in 1999), Kraft Nabisco/Chevron Championship (2 in 2000 and 2006), U.S. Women's Open (2 in 2000 and 2001), LPGA Championship/Women's PGA Championship (1 in 2001), and Women's British Open (1 in 2002).[37] Her achievements include completing the LPGA Career Grand Slam in 2001 at age 26—the youngest player to do so—and becoming the first and only woman to achieve the Super Career Grand Slam in 2002 by winning all five majors contested during her era.[18][47] Webb's consistency in majors was remarkable, with over 20 top-10 finishes across her appearances, contributing to a win percentage of approximately 7.6% in the 92 majors she contested from 1996 to 2017.[4] Her record compares favorably to contemporaries like Annika Sörenstam, who also completed the Career Grand Slam but fell short of the Super version; both players redefined excellence in the late 1990s and early 2000s, with Webb's versatility across evolving major lineups highlighting her adaptability.[48]| Major Championship | Best Finishes |
