Bronte May Law (born 12 March 1995) is an English professional golfer. Her maiden LPGA Tour victory, her first win as a professional, came in May 2019 at the Pure Silk Championship in Virginia. Her second professional victory occurred in October 2021 in Dubai; this was her first win on the Ladies European Tour.
Law was born in Stockport and attended Cheadle Hulme School and the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA).
Law played for Great Britain & Ireland in the 2012, 2014 and 2016 Curtis Cup matches. In 2016, she became the second player, and the first from Great Britain and Ireland, to get a perfect 5–0 record.[1] [2] Also in 2016 she won the European Ladies Amateur Championship, becoming the world number 2 ranked player in the World Amateur Golf Ranking.[3]
Law turned professional late in 2016. She competed in the LPGA Final Qualifying Tournament, earning full status on the Symetra Tour and partial status on the LPGA Tour for 2017.[4] [5]
In early May 2019, Law lost to Kim Sei-young in a playoff for the LPGA Mediheal Championship. Three weeks later she won the Pure Silk Championship for her first victory on the LPGA Tour.[6]
Law is the daughter of Morven and Timothy Law. She has a younger sister named Isabella. Law studied sociology at UCLA, where she met one of her best friends, teammate Alison Lee. The two have each led solid careers early on the LPGA Tour. She grew up an avid competitor in all sports, and is a big football fan, holding allegiances to Manchester United.
