BY iseekgolf.com | ALPG Tour | 2003 ALPG Player's Championship | Preview | 30 Jan 2003

The first time two sets of identical twins are to play in an ALPG tournament will occur at the AUD$100,000 Contrabart ALPG Players’ Championship to be held at Horizons Golf Resort on 13-16 February 2003.

The Head and Hawkes sisters will make history when they play in Australia ‘s third largest professional ladies tournament on the ALPG Tour, Contrabart ALPG Players’ Championship.

Samantha and Johanna Head, the Surrey-born twin sisters arrived on the Ladies European Tour in 1995 amid much hype of being the next British superstars and glamour girls of women’s golf. During the early part of their careers the girls grabbed media attention for their Kim Basinger looks and have worked hard to receive the recognition that they are now among the best players in women’s golf.

Angela and Wendy Hawkes from Auckland, New Zealand both turned professional in 2002. Angela was the leading qualifier in the 2000 New Zealand Amateur and the 2002 Auckland Provincial Champion. Wendy was the 1999 and the 2001 New Zealand Amateur Champion. Both girls are currently studying Japanese and list their family and coach as having the most influence on their careers.

General admission tickets are on sale now from Horizons Golf Resort and are $10 per person for Thursday and Friday, $15 per person for Saturday and Sunday and $35 for a tournament pass.
