Perrine Delacour (born 5 April 1994) is a French professional golfer playing on the LPGA Tour and Ladies European Tour.[1]
Delacour started playing golf at the age of 8 and won the 2009 Girls Amateur Championship at West Lancs. After winning the 2011 French International Ladies Amateur Championship at 17 years of age, Delacour was a member of the French team winning the 2011 European Girls' Team Championship at Is Molas Golf Club in Sardinia, Italy.
The year after, she reached the semi-finals of the 2012 British Ladies Amateur alongside Georgia Hall at Carnoustie, and was part of the French team at the 2012 Espirito Santo Trophy teamed with Shannon Aubert and Céline Boutier.
She was one of four amateurs to earn LPGA Tour status at Final Stage of Q-School in 2012.[1]
Professional career
Delacour turned professional in December 2012 and joined the Symetra Tour in 2013, where she was runner-up at the Eagle Classic and the Symetra Tour Championship. She finished eighth in the Symetra Tour rankings to gain full exemption for the 2014 LPGA Tour.[2]
She played full time on the LPGA Tour between 2014 and 2018, and her best finish in 2014 was T15 at the Women's Australian Open, in 2015 it was a 4th at the Kingsmill Championship, and in 2017 a tie for 7th at the Manulife LPGA Classic. Delacour set a tournament record at the 2017 Manulife LPGA Classic with a career low round of 62 (−10).
For 2019 she dropped down to the Symetra Tour. Ten top-10 finishes, including wins at the Four Winds Invitational and Prasco Charity Championship, helped her win the Symetra Tour Player of the Year and earn promotion to the 2020 LPGA Tour, where she finished 3rd at the Women's Australian Open.[3]
She qualified for the 2020 Tokyo Olympics along with Céline Boutier where she finished T29. At the 2024 Paris Olympics she finished T42.[4]
In 2023, Delacour rose into the top-75 on the Women's World Golf Rankings for the first time. She also earned Ladies European Tour status at Q-School in 2023 to share her time between the two tours, and won the 2024 Dormy Open Helsingborg and 2025 Investec South African Women's Open.[5]
