Tracy Thompson

Timber Creek Golf Course | Instructors - Tracy Thompson

Tracy Thompson has been teaching the game of golf for over 20 years, bringing a wealth of experience from both competitive play and professional instruction. A former Division I collegiate golfer, Tracy went on to compete professionally on the Canadian Women’s Professional Golf Tour and reached the quarterfinals of the 2008 U.S. Women’s Amateur Championship. Her background at the highest levels of competition gives her unique insight into the physical, technical, and mental demands of the game.

Swing Philosophy

Tracy’s teaching philosophy centers on building a swing that matches each player’s natural athletic ability, body type, and personal goals. She believes there is no single “perfect” swing—rather, the best swing is one that is efficient, repeatable, and sustainable under pressure. Tracy emphasizes fundamentals such as balance, rhythm, and proper sequencing, while also integrating course management and mental strategies to help players perform their best. Whether working with beginners, competitive juniors, or advanced players, Tracy’s approach combines technical expertise with a passion for making the game fun, approachable, and rewarding.
