8 Things You Didn't Know About Allisen Corpuz

1. Allisen Corpuz was born March 20, 1998 in Honolulu.

3. She played collegiate golf at the University of Southern California (USC) and was a two-time All-American. Additionally, she won three times in her career as a Trojan and, whilst there, earned a Masters in Global Supply Chain Management, a Graduate Certificate in Business Analytics, as well as a Graduate Certificate in Sustainability and Business.

4. Corpuz turned professional in 2021 and finished T16 at Q-School to earn LPGA Tour membership for 2022. During her first season, she made 17 of 21 cuts and finished 41st in the overall rankings.

5. In 2008, she surpassed fellow Hawaii native Michelle Wie West as the youngest qualifier in US Women’s Amateur Public Links history at 10 years, three months and nine days.

6. She has an equipment partnership with Ping and, as a result, plays a full bag of clubs from the brand.

7. Corpuz was a member of the winning 2021 Curtis Cup team. During the event, she went undefeated with a 3-0-0 and did not play any of the two foursome sessions. She partnered with Rose Zhang to two fourball victories.
