Terrill Samuel was born in a small town in England, UK and moved to Canada as a youngster. She was a competitive swimmer and did not take golf seriously until she was about 20 years old. Golf has always been ever-present in the Samuel family from England to Canada. Aside from Terrill’s illustrious career as an amateur champion, she enjoys playing golf with her mother Cam, brother Craig, sister-in-law Linda and her three nieces and nephews at Weston Golf Country Club where the Samuel family have been members for over 30 years.

Some of Terrill’s big wins include 1991 2004 – Ontario Ladies Amateur Champion, 1991, 2000, 2010 – Ontario Ladies Mid-Amateur Champion, 2001 – Ontario Ladies 4 Ball Champion, 2003 – Ontario Ladies Match Play Champion, 2011 – Ontario Senior Women’s Amateur Champion, 2012 2015 – Canadian Senior Women’s Amateur Champion and most recently 2017 US Senior Women’s Amateur Runner-up.

Samuel also represented Canada on the international stage multiple times. Highlights include winning the Mellsop Stroke Play at the 1990 New Zealand Ladies Golf Championship and defeating Annika Sorenstam in a match play event in the 1992 Ladies British Open Amateur Championship.

A proud and retired teacher of C.W. Jefferys Collegiate Institute where she taught computer studies and coached girls and boys volleyball, Terrill has a lot more time now to concentrate on her golf game, play in more tournaments and travel.
