A sharp eye scanning the tee sheet and a direct message on Instagram has landed Stephanie Bunque a valuable ally as she enters the professional ranks at the inaugural event of The Players Series at Rosebud Country Club this week.
A member at Victoria Golf Club, Bunque spotted Geoff Ogilvyâs name on the tee sheet last year and reached out to the former US Open champion who is this week serving as host at Rosebud.
Paired together at the St Andrews Beach Invitational organised by Mike Clayton last June, Bunque and Ogilvy have remained in contact ever since, the 23-year-old seeking guidance before turning professional straight after finishing runner-up at the Master of the Amateurs earlier this month.
