Lindy Duncan

Lindy Duncan is an American professional golfer from Fort Lauderdale, Florida, who competes full-time on the LPGA Tour. Born January 16, 1991, she secured full LPGA Tour status for the 2016 season and has been a Tour regular since. She is one of the more decorated players on Tour in terms of amateur pedigree, and her 2025 campaign marked the strongest sustained stretch of her professional career.

Duncan attended Duke University from 2009 to 2013, where she was a four-time first-team All-American and a three-time ACC Player of the Year (2010, 2011, 2012). She was also named the NGCA National Player of the Year in 2012. Her amateur record included a semi-final appearance at the 2006 U.S. Women's Amateur at the age of 15 and Curtis Cup and Copa de las Americas selections. She graduated in 2013 as individual runner-up at the NCAA Division I Women's Golf Championship, turned professional immediately afterward, and joined the Symetra Tour before securing full LPGA Tour status for the 2016 season. Her path to a settled Tour card was not straightforward -- she spent several seasons shuttling between the Symetra Tour and the LPGA, returning to qualifying school multiple times.

Her most significant career result came at the 2025 Chevron Championship, where she played into a five-way playoff before losing to Mao Saigo on the first extra hole. Peers voted her the 2025 Heather Farr Player Award, which the LPGA presents annually to a player whose career exemplifies determination in the face of adversity. In her acceptance speech, Duncan spoke about learning to compete from love of the game rather than fear of losing her card.

Duncan plays a controlled, precision-based game well suited to links and tight-tree courses. She has been a consistent ball-striker throughout her career, with her long game underpinning the top-10 finishes she has accumulated across multiple tournament formats. After more than a decade of professional persistence, she enters the 2026 season as an established LPGA contender at women's majors including the Chevron Championship, the KPMG Women's PGA Championship, the U.S. Women's Open, and the AIG Women's Open.
