Emily Price, from Cleobury Mortimer in Worcestershire & Herefordshire, is England Golf’s top girl golfer for 2016, having won the girls’ Orders of Merit.
“Winning the Order of Merit does mean a great deal to me,” said Price, 17. “It's great to know that all my hard work throughout the season has paid off. It shows me just how well I performed throughout the whole year, which is a real confidence boost and also motivation to do it again next year.”
Her year got off to a fast start when she had three wins in two weeks, including the Scottish U18 championship. GCSE exams then took priority but she returned in the summer to win the women’s stroke play and to represent England in the European and world girls’ team championships
“Playing with other girls at such high levels is really motivational and helped me to understand what I need to do to become better,” she said. “Overall this season has been brilliant and I have really enjoyed it with playing in events, travelling to different countries and playing with Team England.”
Next year, Price wants “to improve on everything I have done this year. So, I would like to win more of the bigger events and improve my average score per round as I would also like to reduce my handicap to plus-4 by the end of the season.” She added: “Every year I want to become a better golfer.”
