Cristie Kerr is an American golfer who plays on the LPGA Tour. She was was born on 12 October 1977 in Miami, Florida and started playing golf at the age of eight. She had a very successful amateur career and was the 1996 American Junior Golf Association Junior Player of the Year. That same year she played in the Curtis Cup and was the low amateur at the U.S. Women's Open.
Kerr turned professional in 1996 and 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, but in 2002 she won for the first time as a professional 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 maintained this form in the first half of 2005. Her best finish at a major championship is tied second at the 2000 U.S. Women's Open. She was a member of the United States Solheim Cup team in 2002 and 2003.
Kerr's best friend on tour is Natalie Gulbis, and Donald Trump is an off-course friend, as Kerr made an appearance on an episode of the third edition of NBC's The Apprentice in 2005. She has been engaged twice, and had both engagements fall apart. She is currently dating Erik Stevens, who heads up a company that is developing a sports complex in Brooklyn. Kerr lives in Manhattan on a part-time basis. Mutual of Omaha is Kerr's sponsor.
