A native of Wheeling, West Virginia, she began her athletic career with impressive results on the competitive circuit.

Sparks continued her dominance the following year, capturing the titles in the Women’s Western and Eastern Amateurs, before showcasing her skills on the world stage as a member of the 1994 U.S. team Curtis Cup.
I’m shocked and saddened by the death of Stephanie Sparks. Many of you will remember Steph as the host of #BigBreak – we worked together on 7 seasons. Lots of fond memories of those times, Steph was a crucial part of the Big Break success story. My thoughts go out to her family. pic.twitter.com/3vND4ingyI
