Shannon Tan

Shannon Tan (born 9 April 2004) is a Singaporean professional golfer and Ladies European Tour player. She won the 2023 Singapore Ladies Masters on the China LPGA Tour, and in 2024 won the Magical Kenya Ladies Open in her LET debut.

Early life and amateur career
Tan was introduced to golf by her father when she was five. When she was 14, her parents quit their jobs and moved the family to Australia to support her golf development. In 2018, she triumphed at the Tasmanian Amateur Championship, defeating Isabelle Simpson, 9 and 8, in the final. She represented Singapore at the 2018 Espirito Santo Trophy and at the Queen Sirikit Cup (the Asia-Pacific Amateur Ladies Golf Team Championship) between 2018 and 2022, where she was individual runner-up in 2021, a stroke behind Mizuki Hashimoto.

Tan attended Charters Towers State High School in Queensland, Australia before enrolling at Texas Tech University in the fall of 2022, to start playing with the Texas Tech Red Raiders women's golf team. She closed out her freshman year by finishing tied-fourth at the NCAA Division I regionals.

In July 2023, Tan won the Singapore Ladies Masters at Laguna National, a China LPGA Tour event, while still an amateur. She became only the second Singaporean to win on the CLPGA after Amanda Tan won the 2017 Beijing Heritage.

Professional career
Tan turned professional in January 2024 after she earned her card for the Ladies European Tour (LET) by finishing tied 8th at Q-School, the first Singaporean to earn an LET card.

In January, she was runner-up at the Webex Players Series Murray River, two strokes behind Kazuma Kobori in her professional debut. In February, she won the Magical Kenya Ladies Open in her LET debut. By April, she climbed into the top-200 on the Women's World Golf Rankings for the first time.
