Early Life and Golf Journey
Amanda Doherty was born on September 16, 1997, in Atlanta, Georgia, to parents Mike Doherty and Munday Doherty.
She picked up golf at the age of 13 — a relatively late start compared to many touring professionals — but quickly showed exceptional talent on the course.
She attended The Galloway School, a private institution in Atlanta, where her golf career took off at the junior level. Doherty won the 2014 Georgia 1A private school state championship in a one-hole playoff and led her team to a fourth-place finish in the team standings that same year.
She earned All-State honors in Class 1A by the Georgia High School Golf Coaches Association in 2014 and received the Female Athlete of the Week recognition from the Northside Neighbor newspaper in both 2013 and 2014.
By 2016, she was named Athlete of the Week again and helped her team capture the 1A regional and team championships.
After graduating from The Galloway School in 2016, Doherty enrolled at Florida State University and joined the Seminoles women’s golf program.
She served as a two-time team captain and earned Golfweek All-American Honorable Mention recognition in both 2018 and 2020.
She also earned All-ACC Team selection in 2018, cementing her status as one of the top collegiate golfers in the country. She graduated from FSU in May 2020 with a degree in Sport Management.
Doherty turned professional in 2020, immediately joining the Epson Tour (then known as the Symetra Tour) and beginning the grind toward full LPGA Tour membership.
Professional Golf Career
Doherty’s professional breakout came in 2021, her first full Epson Tour season. She competed in 19 events, made 15 cuts, and recorded eight top-10 finishes — a standout rookie campaign.
She finished runner-up at the IOA Golf Classic and held the 54-hole lead at the ISPS Handa World Invitational in Ballymena, Northern Ireland before finishing tied for eighth at 11-under.
That performance, combined with her seventh-place finish on the 2021 Epson Tour money list, secured her LPGA Tour membership for the 2022 season.
She also earned the Gaëlle Truet Rookie of the Year Award on the Epson Tour in 2021.
Her LPGA debut in 2022 was encouraging. Playing in 20 events and making 12 cuts, she recorded a best finish of T8 and posted earnings of $219,674 — the strongest single-season output of her LPGA career to date.
She ranked 90th on the money list and averaged 71.47 per round. That same year she led after 54 holes at the ISPS Handa World Invitational on the LPGA circuit, showing she could compete at the top end of the leaderboard.
The 2023 season brought 22 starts with nine cuts made, including a 22nd-place finish at the Chevron Championship — her best major result. Doherty earned $180,633 that year but missed the cut at the Women’s PGA Championship.
A partial 2024 LPGA schedule followed, supplemented by a return to the Epson Tour where she made 14 cuts in 15 starts and recorded five top-10 finishes, including a solo third at the Hartford HealthCare Women’s Championship.
She competed in 14 LPGA events, making seven cuts. Through 2026, she posted a T5 at the Kroger Queen City Championship — her best result of the year — before her memorable hole-in-one at the 2026 KPMG Women’s PGA Championship at Hazeltine National.
According to the LPGA’s official report, she used an 8-iron from 161 yards on the par-3 17th hole to register her first tour ace.
Caddie
Doherty has used multiple caddies across her LPGA career. In 2022, Jeff Combs — a high school golf coach and instructor at Four Bridges Country Club — carried her bag at the Walmart NW Arkansas Championship, one of several instances where she has worked with caddies on a tournament-by-tournament basis.

Endorsements
Doherty plays her equipment under a sponsorship agreement with PING, one of the leading club manufacturers on the LPGA Tour. She also plays Titleist golf balls, confirmed by her listing on the Titleist Tour ambassador page.
Both are equipment-level sponsorship arrangements common for LPGA Tour players at her career stage.
On the business partnership side, Jabian Consulting — an Atlanta-based management consultancy — has served as one of her sponsors.
The firm noted on its website that it is proud to support the Atlanta-native during her inaugural LPGA season, reflecting the regional community backing that many LPGA players rely on outside of national brand deals.
Armored Fitness and Rigby Financial Group are also reported among her sponsorship partners.
These deals, while not publicly valued, collectively supplement her prize money earnings and represent meaningful income for a player at her ranking.
LPGA Tour players outside the top 50 in the world rankings typically earn between $100,000 and $400,000 annually from combined sponsorships and prize money, placing Doherty’s total endorsement income within a realistic range of $150,000 to $300,000 per year across her career.
