AJ Earthorne is the
face of Predator
Ridge's Swing Like a
Girl program.
As 2010 rolled along, AJ Eathorne knew
she was reaching her limit. A former
LPGA Tour player and a successful
caddie on the
PGA and LPGA Tours,
Eathorne had been witness to the best
golf could produce. She even caddied
for
LPGA Tour star Brittany Lincicome
during her win at the CN Canadian
Women's Open in Montreal.
But the endless days of hotels and
grinding it out on tour, either as a
player or looping, had taken their
toll. It was time for a break. Eathorne
joined the o ce ranks and tried to
settle into the corporate groove, but
with her boundless enery and outgo-
ing personality she knew it was a bad
t that wouldn't last. Besides, she had
other ideas in mind. Golf ideas.
Three years after shutting down
her life on the road, Eathorne is now
an important part of the bustling
instruction program at Predator
Ridge Resort near Vernon, B.C.
