Step Up For Stephanie

Christmas came early for Barrie native, Stephanie Sherlock this past Sunday.  Stephanie fired an even-par 72 in harsh conditions during the final round of the LPGA Qualifying Tournament in Florida. Now she has her LPGA card for the 2011 season. She will probably see about 12 or so events next season. Of course just because she's on the big tour doesn't mean she making the big $$$$ yet.

“I’m looking for sponsors for the upcoming season,” Sherlock said. “Especially with my first full pro year, I’m going to need a lot of financial help.”

Ok lets step up! Scott McLeod from Flagstick and I had some banter on Twitter about Sherlock and golf in Canada. He made some great points:

Supporting players at AM level is 1 thing but if Canada wants to compete in pro golf they need to support the emerging pros. A card is one thing but the freedom to play without financial burden is a whole other thing.

So let's get the word out that Stephanie needs some sponsorship to help her out during her 2011 LPGA season. Step Up for Stephanie and lets get her some sponsorship so she can concentrate on golf when she steps to the first tee next LPGA season!
