Vicky Hurst, of Melbourne, a Florida Junior Tour (FJT) member from 2004-2007, has earned her LPGA membership by finishing first on the Duramed Futures Tour money list.

Hurst, the 2005 FJT Girls 16-18 Points Champion and Junior Player-of-the-Year, finished on top of the Tour’s season money list with record single-season earnings of $93,107 in her rookie year, winning four tournaments of the 13 events she entered.

During her FJT career, Vicky had six FJT victories and an impressive resume that included competing in two U.S. Women’s Open Championships (2006, 2007), advancing to the round of 16 at the 2007 U.S. Women’s Amateur, was the top ranked female junior golfer in the country, and was featured on the cover of GolfWeek prior to her Duramed Futures Tour debut. Hurst turned professional in 2008, four months before graduating from Holy Trinity Episcopal Academy.

Vicky Hurst is the first member of the FJT to earn full-time playing privileges on the PGA or LPGA tour.
