With a caring and comforting family like Corpuz’s, it’s no wonder the recently-turned-pro golfer has such a positive outlook on life. Her family has been there every step of the way to support her accomplishments, be it on the golf course or the numerous degrees and diplomas she acquired over the years to further her business acuity.

Corpuz’s long-term boyfriend is her rock

Among the many people Corpuz relies on, there is also her long-term boyfriend Daniel Eckstorm. The celebrated marine and his family show immense support toward her career and personal goals.

She also spoke very highly of his family and their constant support in her life as reported by golfchannel.com. “No matter what happens on the golf course he always has my back,” she spoke of her loving boyfriend. “He came to the weekends to watch the Cali events and he watched me at the U.S. Open. Both him and his family are phenomenal and I’m so lucky to have them.”

Looks like her support system extends beyond her immediate family. Her jolliness seems to win over anyone she interacts with, and she is always thankful.

Her coach who helped her fall in love with the sport

In her early years as an amateur golfer, Corpuz had a blessed presence in her life to guide her through the tough times. Her coach, Stew Burke, not only showed her the ropes but guided the magnificent Pro Golfer and her team to reach new heights.

Burke moved on to Tulane after two and a half years with the two-time All American but they reconnected again at the end of 2021. She joined the LPGA circuit the following year. She expressed her gratitude as well as sent out a personalized message to her guiding light on the golf course. He appeared to be extremely proud of her for making it into the Ladies Professional Golfers Association.

Corpuz’s caddie is not who you think

Among the many people who help Allisen Corpuz be her best self on and off the court is her caddie and friend Jay Monahan. No, he is not the commissioner of the PGA Tour, but rather the husband of one of her competitors on the greens.

Jennifer Kupcho’s former pro-golfer husband met the rookie on the LPGA Tour during her college stints around the golf course. She was in search of a knowledgeable caddie at the time and according to Golfchannel.com, she was lucky to come across someone so incredible to guide her on the greens.

“I was just looking for someone for the Drive On because I wasn’t in that field until the Thursday before. I texted a caddie at Q-School if he was available and he wasn’t and he connected me to Jay Monahan.” Thus began a partnership between Monahan and Corpuz that has benefited them both on the LPGA circuit.

Her squad supported her through the ups and downs

Aside from a team of rookies during her college years and her family, boyfriend, coach, and caddie, Allisen Corpuz also finds solace in the company of her friends. They have been with her for a long time and she is beyond grateful for their support. Even though they each have busy lives, they managed to show their support for one another over the years.
