Great news for our very own, Maddy Hinson-Tolchard!
She has just received the Karrie Webb Scholarship for 2023 that includes spending a week with Karrie Webb at the KPMG Women’s PGA Championship in New Jersey in June this year.
We are so proud of Maddy and we are excited that she has received this wonderful accolade and acknowledgement.
For those who don’t know (excerpt from the article link below):
Hinson-Tolchard, 21, is majoring in applied exercise science at Oklahoma State University while she plays collegiate golf and is ranked 68th in the World Amateur Golf Rankings.
The West Australian, who hails from Gosnells Golf Club in Perth, donned the green and gold at the World Amateur Team Championship and the Women’s Amateur Asia-Pacific in 2022, and last year she also chalked up a victory on the US college circuit at the NCAA Stillwater Regional.
Since that triumph in May, Hinson-Tolchard has had five top 10 finishes, including in her two most recent starts, and she was ecstatic to receive the news that she has been awarded a scholarship.
“I’m absolutely over the moon to be a recipient of Karrie’s scholarship this year. I’m kind of lost for words,” Hinson-Tolchard said.
“This has been a goal of mine for so long and the hard work is paying off. I’m excited to spend some more time with Karrie and learn from her, this is going to be an amazing opportunity to help me moving forward!”
