LPGA golfer Erica Blasberg died on Sunday in a Las Vegas suburb, according to police and her agent.
Henderson police spokesman Keith Paul said on Monday that authorities were investigating the 25-year-old American's death. It was not immediately clear whether foul play was involved.
Paul said police responded to a 911 call and were dispatched to Blasberg's suburban three-bedroom house around 3pm on Sunday. Paul declined to say who made the call, saying it was part of the investigation.
Blasberg's agent, Chase Callahan, confirmed her death but declined to provide details because of the investigation.
Messages left with the coroner's office in Las Vegas on Monday were not returned.
Blasberg played her only LPGA Tour event this year two weeks ago in Mexico and tied for 44th.
She found greater success in college, winning six times in two years at the University of Arizona and playing on the Curtis Cup team in 2004. She turned professional that year. Blasberg's death was first reported by Golfweek magazine.
