A fantastic golf speaker and sporting personality, Laura is an ideal character to act as an after dinner speaker and attend social and corporate golf days. Laura became an amateur international player for Great Britain before turning professional in 1985, winning both Rookie of the Year and Order of Merit titles.
In 1986 Laura repeated the achievement of the Order of Merit top spot, before winning the 1987 US Women’s Open in an 18 hole playoff. Such a rarity was the victory that the LPGA changed their constitution to grant Davies automatic membership and she has played on both the Ladies European Tour and LPGA ever since.
Davies’ extraordinary achievements on the golf course make her a legend of the sports and a highly sought after sports speaker for events. In 1994, Laura became the first and only golfer, male or female, to win five different golf tours in one calendar year.
Her tours, including US, Europe, Australia, Asia and Japan prove testament to Davies’ drive and determination to be the best and realise her ambitions, two skills Laura explains in depth as a sports speaker that are easily relatable to social and business environments alike.
Laura regularly appears on the BBC’s coverage of golf, including The Open Championship. Her consummate professionalism combined with charm and warmth make her an ideal on screen personality and television presenter. Laura enjoys her time in front of camera as much as joining in on match play and interacting with guests during golf days.
A charming individual, Laura is more than happy to accompany golf day guests for a meal after matchplay and perhaps finish her day with an after dinner speech featuring some anecdotal tales of her extensive golfing career.
