Patricia Mary "Trish" Johnson MBE (born 17 January 1966) is an English professional golfer. She won three times on the LPGA Tour and 19 times on the Ladies European Tour. As a senior she has won both senior women's major championships, the U.S. Senior Women's Open and the Senior LPGA Championship.

Early life

[edit]

Johnson was born in Bristol, South West England, United Kingdom. Her father and her three brothers were all golfers, one of them was a professional golfer. She practiced other sports, including badminton, soccer and tennis, but took up golf at age nine influenced by her family, playing at Royal North Devon Golf Club, a links course and the oldest golf club in England. She preferred to learn by herself rather than taking golf lessons.[1][2]

Amateur career

[edit]

She was South Western Champion in 1983 and 1984. In 1984 she was both England Under-23 and Under-21 Champion. In 1985 she won the English Women's Amateur Championship, was the English Women's Strokeplay Champion[3] and repeated as England Under-23 Champion. In 1986 she represented Great Britain and Ireland in the Espirito Santo Trophy World Amateur Golf Team Championships and the Curtis Cup. At the 1986 Curtis Cup match, on foreign soil at Prairie Dunes Country Club in Hutchinson, Kansas, her team won with 13−5 against United States and Johnson won maximum points in her four games.[4][5]

Professional career

[edit]

Johnson turned professional in March 1987. She won three tournaments in her first year as a professional and was Rookie of Year on the Ladies European Tour in 1987. She won four tournaments in 1990 and won the 1990 Order of Merit. Overall, she has won 19 tournaments on the Ladies European Tour and has finished in the top ten of the Order of Merit on thirteen occasions, including second places in 2000 and 2004.[6]

Her latest regular victory came at the age of 48 years, 7 months, and 15 days at the 2014 Aberdeen Asset Management Ladies Scottish Open, making her the oldest ever winner on the Ladies European Tour[7] and tied third on the all-time-list of most wins on the tour.[8]

Johnson won the 1987 LPGA Tour Qualifying School to earn playing rights for the 1988 season. She has three wins on the US-based LPGA Tour. She won the 1993 Las Vegas LPGA tournament and the following week's LPGA Atlanta Women's Championship. Her last LPGA victory was the 1996 Fieldcrest Cannon Classic.[9]

She was a member of the European Solheim Cup team in 1990, 1992, 1994, 1996, 1998, 2000, 2005, and 2007 and teamed with Laura Davies to represent England at the 2007 Women's World Cup of Golf.[10]

Senior career

[edit]

After turning 50, Johnson has won six tournaments on the Legends Tour, where most tournaments had an age limit of 45, including three senior women's major golf championships. She won the inaugural Senior LPGA Championship in 2017 and repeated that victory in 2021.

At the 2023 U.S. Senior Women's Open at Waverley Country Club in Portland, Oregon, which had an age limit of 50, Johnson, at 57 years of age, was tied at fourth, five strokes from leader Catriona Matthew after two rounds. She advanced to the lead after a third round 5-under-par 67 and finished winner, one stroke ahead of Leta Lindley after the final round. Johnson received a winner's check of $180,000, twice as much as the highest prize on any regular win in her career.[2]

Johnson became the player with most victories in senior women's majors championships and one of three players who, during their careers, have won both of the two senior majors. The other two players are Laura Davies and Helen Alfredsson.

Awards, honors

[edit]

In 2010, Johnson earned Life Time Membership of the Ladies European Tour, reaching the criteria for the honor after the tour decided to retrospectively award points for her 2008 win of the European Nations Cup.[11]

In September 2024, the England Golf Federation announced that Johnson was selected to be inducted in to the England Golf Hall of Fame.[12]

In June 2025 Johnson was in the King's Birthday honors list becoming an MBE .[13]
