On March 17, 2008 Louise Friberg won the LPGA Mastercard Classic Tournament in Mexico by one stroke, using Ping Golf Clubs and Titleist Balls. She will be one of the best and brightest on the professional tour circuit in the next several years.
Louise started golfing with her mother in Sweden when she was nine years old. Louise qualified to play golf at the only high school in Sweden to have a golf program. She did well enough there to qualify for a scholarship to Washington University, Seattle, WA. She improved her average score each of the years that she played for UW. She entered the training program for professional women golfers in Scottsdale, Arizona and played in Florida as well.
She began playing professionally in 2005. She played in the West Coast Ladies Golf Tour during the winter of 2005 with some success. She then returned to Sweden to play in the Swedish Professional Tour. She qualified for the Ladies European Tour and after that has come back to the United States where she has qualified for the ladies professional tour.
Louise Friberg played in many tournaments during her years at the University of Washington finishing in the top ten in ten tournaments. In her third year as a professional, she won the LPGA Mastercard Classic by one stroke. She will be a force to be reckoned with in the next few years as she gains experience and confidence. Be sure to keep an eye out for her.
