Biography
Michelle McGann was born in West Palm Beach, Florida on December 30, 1969. She picked up her first set of golf clubs at age seven (7). As an amateur golfer, McGann’s success is ranked among the best all time. McGann won the 1987 Junior Girls Championship and was named the AJGA Rolex Junior Player of the Year.
