==Amateur career==
In [[2001 U.S. Women's Open|2001]], as a 12-year-old, she became the youngest player to qualify for the [[U.S. Women's Open]]. This record stood until [[2007 U.S. Women's Open|2007]], when [[Lexi Thompson]] beat the record by several months.

At the age of 17, she was one of three co-leaders starting the final round of the [[2005 U.S. Women's Open]] at [[Cherry Hills Country Club|Cherry Hills]] in suburban [[Denver]]. Pressel was tied for first on the 18th [[fairway (golf)|fairway]] when [[Birdie Kim]] holed out from the [[bunker]] just ahead to secure a one-stroke lead. Pressel then needed a birdie to tie, but made a [[Bogey (golf)|bogey]] on the 18th to lose by two strokes.  Her second-place finish gave her a share of the low amateur honors with [[Brittany Lang]].  Pressel played in a total of seven LPGA events in 2005 and made the cut in all of them, with a scoring average of 70.96 in 28 rounds.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://sports.yahoo.com/golf/lpga/players/Morgan+Pressel/4236/log?season=2005 |publisher=Yahoo Sports |title=Morgan Pressel – 2005 season results |access-date=July 15, 2011}}</ref>

In 2005, Pressel lost to Yani Tseng at 39th hole during the [[North and South Women's Amateur Golf Championship|North and South Women's Amateur]] at [[Pinehurst Resort|Pinehurst]], but won the most important amateur event, the [[U.S. Women's Amateur]].  Pressel also finished her amateur career as 2005 Girls Rolex Junior Player of the Year.

During her amateur career, she won 10 AJGA titles, including all five AJGA Invitationals: the "AJGA Slam".<ref name="ajgapoy2005">
