Biography
Luke Donald was born December 7, 1977, in Hemel Hempstead, Hertfordshire, England. Donald and his brother Christian played junior golf at Hazlemere and Beaconsfield Golf Clubs. Luke was the club champion of Beaconsfield twice, first winning the championship at the age of 14. He attended The Royal Grammar School in High Wycombe.
When it came time to make a decision about college, Donald took a golf scholarship at Northwestern University in suburban Chicago in 1997, where he became a member of the Sigma Chi fraternity. He studied art theory and practice, and became an avid painter; one of his paintings was even auctioned by the PGA Tour for charity.
While at Northwestern, Donald was a three-time, First Team All American, considered by many to be the top college player in the country winning 13 college events including the 1999 NCAA Individual Championship. He also won the Golfstat Cup in 1999, awarded for the lowest stroke average for the year, beating the previous best set by Tiger Woods. Donald also claimed the Walker Cup; the amateur equivalent of the Ryder Cup, Donald posted a 7-1 record, leading Great Britain and Ireland to two consecutive victories over the Americans.
