She could also be very well contributing to her soaring net worth from her sponsorship deals with brands like PXG, Versant Health, Basbasol, Abacus Sportswear US, Titleist, and Footjoy.
While she is yet to hit a million-dollar mark in a given tour, her net worth should already be in the region of seven figures - assuming several other avenues from which she must have had gainful remunerations.
