cantour.com: The Canadian Tour's Spring Qualifying School wrapped up yesterday in what is sure to go down as a history making moment in the world of golf. Isabelle Beisiegel, the 32 year old Montreal native became the first woman to successfully achieve status on a men's professional golf tour.
"I still can't believe it. It's a little overwhelming." Isabella said following her round. The former member of the University of Oaklahoma golf team who was competing in a Canadian Tour Qualifying School for her third time, shot a 4 under par 68 in round 3 at the Morningstar Golf Club to put her inside the number needed to earn status going into the final round.
Her fourth round score of 75, and a tournament total of 296 (+8) was good enough to earn the last non-exempt card.
By successfully earning status on the Canadian Tour, the former LPGA member and current Futures Tour member becomes the first women to successfully earn status on a Men's Professional Golf Tour via Qualifying School.
