A lifelong Hoosier

·

Senior Amber Lindgren had an important decision to make following her fourth birthday. She could learn golf from her father Randy, or spend the summer with her grandparents. She chose golf. Although Lindgren couldn’t play much golf at the age of 4, she would tag along with her father who coached the boys’ and girls’ programs at Northwestern High School in Kokomo, Ind. “At first, I was not allowed to play with his high school team, so I would just watch in amazement and pick up their balls for them,” Lindgren said. Becoming a Hoosier Lindgren, a lifelong Hoosier fan, who came into the world on the day of an IU-Purdue basketball game in 1987, unexpectedly found her way onto the IU golf team and has made a significant impact. Lindgren played in her first tournament at age 6 and received national exposure growing up playing in tournaments all over the country. In 2004 she was named Indiana Golf Tour Player of the Year. Although many acknowledged her as the best player in the state of Indiana, the Hoosier women’s golf team, going through a coaching change at the time had not called her and almost let her go to Iowa.
