The year 2002 marked a watershed moment when Michelle, on the verge of puberty, qualified for the LPGA’s Takefuji Classic, making her the youngest golfer ever to qualify for an LPGA event and setting the stage for her historic semifinal appearance at the U.S. Women’s Amateur Public Links. Amidst her academic pursuits at Punahou School, a prestigious private academy in Honolulu, Michelle began devoting more time to golf training in the spring of 2002. Her journey took her to the David Leadbetter Golf Academy in Bradenton, Florida.
In 2003, at the tender age of thirteen, Michelle entered her first major event, the LPGA’s Kraft Nabisco Championship in Rancho Mirage, California. Her performance was nothing short of spectacular, with a sixty-six in the third round matching the record for the lowest score by an amateur at an LPGA major. Although she initially secured third place, a final-round score of seventy-six resulted in a ninth-place tie. Nevertheless, her top-ten finish at such a young age was a clear indication of her promising future. Later that year, Michelle went on to win the WAPL championship, making her the youngest player ever to win the tournament in any adult USGA event.
