Sparks was an accomplished amateur golfer. She played at Duke, where she was an All-American. After college, she played in the Futures Tour, where she won the 1992 North and South Women’s Amateur and the 1993 Women’s Western Amateur and Women’s Eastern Amateur. 

She played just one season on the LPGA Tour in 2000, and injuries cut her pro career short. 

According to Golfweek, Sparks transitioned into broadcasting, hosting several series on the Golf Channel and reporting during tournaments. 

Sparks’ family intends to hold a private service. 

"Stephanie graced our world with her presence and leaves behind cherished memories of laughter, kindness, and warmth," her obituary says.
