Allisen Corpuz: Pebble Beach, Pressure & the Pursuit of Another Win

[upbeat music] Hey, everyone.

Welcome back to another episode of Fringe Coverage.

This podcast profiles the stories, swings, and stars of the LPGA Tour.

And whether you're new to women's golf or a longtime fan, hopefully this podcast helps you develop your own rooting interest in women's professional golf.

And today we are joined by LPGA star and major champion Alison Corpuz.

As one of the most decorated amateurs to ever play the sport, Alison was a three-time AJGA All-American, and in 2008 she surpassed Michelle Wie to become the youngest player ever to compete in the US Women Open, uh, Public Links at 10 years old.

After racking up All-American honors while playing at USC, she's now in her fifth season on the LPGA, and is one of the most accurate drivers on tour.

And most notably, Alison broke through for her first career LPGA win in 2023 in arguably the grandest fashion possible, dominating the first ever US Women's Open hosted at Pebble Beach.

Alison, welcome to Fringe Coverage.

Thanks.

Thanks for having me today.

I'm really excited for this.

Th- well, w- tell us at the end whether you're still excited about this.

We're gonna, we're gonna, we're gonna brag about you a ton today.

Uh, we're so excited to have you join us, but let's, let's start here.
