Professional career

Kerr turned professional in 1996 at age 18, playing on both the Futures Tour and Players West Tour. Her first professional victory came at the Ironwood FUTURES Classic in 1996. Late in 1996 she tied for sixth at the LPGA Final Qualifying Tournament to gain exempt status for 1997. Her LPGA career started fairly slowly. It took her three years to make the top fifty on the money list. In 2002 she won for the first time on the LPGA at the Longs Drugs Challenge. By 2004 she was one of the leading players on the tour, with three tournament victories, and a fifth place finish on the money list. She won two tournaments in 2005 and moved up to third on the money list. She tied for second at the 2000 U.S. Women's Open matched by her performance in the 2006 Women's British Open. Her first win of 2006 came at the Franklin American Mortgage Championship where she posted a tournament-record score of 19 under par. To date, Kerr has 12 wins on the LPGA Tour. In 2006, she was the only American to win more than one event on the LPGA Tour, winning three times. (Americans won only seven of that year's 33 events.) In 2007, she won the U.S. Women's Open, her first major championship. She was also a member of the United States Solheim Cup team in 2002,[6] 2003,[7] and 2005.
