Alison Lee is one of several Americans to have won multiple times on the Ladies European Tour in recent years.
Born in California in February 1995, Lee credits her father as her greatest influence in her golfing career, starting in the game at the age of 6. She would go on to become the world’s best amateur for a period of time, sitting at the top of the World Amateur Golf Rankings for 16 weeks prior to turning professional.
She represented her country in the Solheim Cup less than a year after turning professional, but would have to wait nine years before making her way back into the team. That came after her second Ladies European Tour victory, which was a record-breaking one at the Aramco Team Series – Riyadh. Lee is a two-time winner on the LET, with her first win coming two years earlier, also in an Aramco Team Series event.
Lee also qualified to represent Team USA at the Solheim Cup for the second time in 2024.
