Early Life & Family
Dottie Pepper (born Dottie Mochrie) was born on August 17, 1965, in Saratoga Springs, New York. She attended Furman University, where she won five collegiate tournaments and earned All-American honors three times.
Rise to Fame
Pepper joined the LPGA Tour in 1988 and quickly established herself among the sport’s elite. Her breakout came in 1992, when she topped the LPGA money list and was named Player of the Year, the same year she won her first major championship at the Nabisco Dinah Shore.
Career History
Over a career spanning 1988 to 2004, Pepper won 25 professional tournaments overall, including 17 LPGA Tour events. She captured two major championships, both at the Nabisco Dinah Shore (1992 and 1999); her 19-under-par winning score in 1999 still stands as one of the lowest in women’s major championship history. She represented the United States in six Solheim Cups and finished in the top ten on the money list for ten consecutive seasons from 1991 to 2001, before retiring from competitive golf in 2004 due to injury. Since 2005 she has worked as a golf broadcaster for NBC, the Golf Channel, ESPN and CBS, covering both men’s and women’s major championships.
