Secret Trevi Fountain wish helps turn golfer Amy Taylor into champion

Taylor began playing as a nine-year-old at Bawburgh Golf Club near Norwich and five years later became the youngest winner of the Ladies’ County Championship title.

For the next step towards achieving her dream of becoming a professional, though, she decided to follow the US collegiate route at Texas Tech University.

“Going to college was the best thing. It really prepared me well for life on tour,” she said.

“You get used to travelling and sorting out accommodation, stuff like that, and you’re playing against some of the best amateur players in the world, which really does prepare you well for the transition to professional golf.

“For me, going to America is the best choice. It’s definitely becoming more popular, the facilities they have out there are next level and I think the money they throw at sport is crazy. We don't really have anything like it in the UK so if the opportunity of America presents itself, you can’t pass it up really.

“I did half a year on the access in 2022 and this is my second full year on the LET. Going to college prepared me well for it. Had I not done that, I’d have struggled more with homesickness.”
