Karrie Web, product of the tiny Queensland sugar town of Ayr, is on the threshold of becoming Australia's most famous golfer. Karrie has rewritten the record book for the elite United States LPGA Tour, jumping to the World No 1 spot in the space of five years. She has achieved a record of more than 20 tournament victories, two major triumphs and a massive $US4.5 million in prize money - and critics agree the best is still to come.
Karrie's rhythmic, no-nonsense swing is, according to critics, about as close to perfection as any golfer is likely to achieve. Coupled with superb technique is her highly competitive spirit. Winning is everything. Peter Thomson, Australia's greatest golfer with five British Open wins to his name, declares Karrie is perhaps Australia's finest golfer ever - male or female.
