Erica Blasberg is a golfer who plays on the LPGA Tour. She was born July 14, 1984 in Orange, California and now lives in Corona, California. She did well as an amateur. She was a medalist at the 2000 U.S. Junior Girls' Amateur Championship, and in 2003 she reached the quarter finals of the U.S. Women's Amateur Championships. She was at the University of Arizona, but she left after her sophomore year to turn pro. She was an All-American in 2003 and 2004, NCAA Freshman of the Year in 2003, and Pac-10 Player of the Year in 2003. In 2004 she was on the winning United States Curtis Cup team.
Blasberg turned professional in June 2004 and played on the Futures Tour that season. She won the Laconia Savings Bank Futures Golf Classic. She won "non-exempt" status for the main LPGA Tour at the 2004 LPGA Final Qualifying Tournament. (Non-exempt status means she gets to play on the tour, but doesn't get into all the best events; because of this, Blasberg still plays on the Futures Tour occasionally.)
