Anna Foster (born 2001) is an Irish professional golfer and Ladies European Tour player.[1]

Early life and amateur career

Foster was born in Dublin and began playing golf at age seven alongside her twin brother. At 10, she started to take the game more seriously, and at 13 she decided to stop playing other sports to focus on golf.[2]

She won the 2021 Irish Women's Amateur Close Championship and the 2024 Irish Women's Amateur Open Championship, and represented Ireland around the world over a dozen times including at the 2022 Espirito Santo Trophy at Le Golf National in Paris.[3] She won three Home Internationals with Ireland and finished 4th at the 2024 European Ladies' Team Championship.[4]

Foster attended Auburn University from 2020 to 2024 and played with the Auburn Tigers women's golf team. She was named All-American once and named to the All-SEC Team twice.[5]

Professional career

Foster graduated from university in 2024 and turned professional that summer.[6] She joined the 2025 Ladies European Tour (LET) after finishing tied 6th at LET Q-School in December.[7]

In her rookie LET season, Foster tied for fourth at the Amundi German Masters, and qualified for the 2025 Women's British Open.[8][9]
