Martha Nause - Part 1 (The Early Years and First LPGA Win)

Major Championship winner, Martha Nause, takes us back to growing up in Sheboygan, Wisconsin, learning the game with her four siblings under the watchful eyes of her parents at their local country club. With no high school or college golf team (until her senior year), Martha's game developed as a family summer endeavor, learning how to compete and win (or lose) with grace from her mother. With the great Manuel de la Torre as her coach, she quickly turned her summertime passion into her life's work, turning professional at age 23 and qualifying in her first attempt for the LPGA Tour. Success came slowly, first by making a few cuts and small checks. Ten years of hard work and developing her self-confidence, Martha finally broke through for win #1 at the Planters Pat Bradley International. In the afterglow of winning, she still had some challenges and triumphs ahead. Martha Nause begins her life story, "FORE the Good of the game."
