Photos: Amy Olson, who announced her LPGA retirement, through the years


Amy Olson played the 2023 U.S. Women’s Open at Pebble Beach while seven months pregnant. It was her last competitive event before going on maternity leave.

An LPGA veteran since 2014, Olson wasn’t sure what motherhood would mean to her playing career.

“Truly I like couldn’t tell you either way,” said Olson in the run-up to Pebble. “I want to see how it goes. I have been super, super blessed and thankful for everything I’ve been able to do out here. I love it, and I think I probably will never do what I’ve done over the last nine years, playing 25 weeks out of the year.”

Olson appears to have made her decision. The winningest player in college golf history, claiming 20 titles while at North Dakota State, Olson announced on Wednesday that she was retiring from the game.

My journey in professional golf is officially ending. Call it quitting, retirement, a VERY extended maternity leave  …I am turning the page to the next chapter in my life. I couldn’t be more thankful for the places God took me through this game of golf,” Olson said as part of a tweet.
