Lottie Woad is the up-and-coming star in women’s golf, with two LET wins and a major top-three finish to her name at the age of 21.
Born in the early part of 2004 in Surrey, England, Woad got her first set of clubs at the age of 3, and she would then go on to showcase her talents to the amateur golfing world. She went on to win the Girls Amateur Championship and the Augusta National Women’s Amateur.
The Englishwoman claimed her maiden Ladies European Tour victory at the KPMG Women’s Irish Open in July 2025, before then going on to record a T3 finish at the Amundi Evian Championship, doing all of this in her final few weeks as an amateur.
Following that near miss, Woad had earned enough points to gain her LPGA Tour card, and turned professional. Amazingly, that incredible form continued, as she won on her professional debut. That came at the ISPS Handa Women’s Scottish Open – a co-sanctioned event between the LET and LPGA Tour. She claimed a first LPGA Tour title in 2026, with victory at the Kroger Queen City Championship.
