Suzy Whaley (born November 10, 1966)[1][2] is an American professional golfer.

Whaley's achievement, however,[3] is questioned by some because the regional qualifying tournament she won was aided by her being allowed to play the course off tees 699 yards shorter than the men she competed against in that regional qualifying.

[4][5] This anomaly was addressed later by the PGA, under the "Whaley rule", introduced in 2003, which requires all entrants at qualifying tournaments, whether male or female, to play off the same tees.

[7][8] She is currently recognized by Golf for Women as a top 50 female instructor and is a board member and advisor for numerous organizations, including Golfer Girl Magazine.

[5] Both of her daughters and a niece play golf, and have participated in the Girls Junior PGA National Championships.
