Professional career After finishing as the low amateur in both the 2024 Masters Tournament and the 2024 U.S. Open, Shipley turned professional. His first event as a professional was at the Beachlands Victoria Open on the 2024 PGA Tour Americas. Shipley finished tied for ninth place.

The following season, he earned his first professional win, defeating Lee Seung-taek on the fifth playoff hole to claim the LECOM Suncoast Classic title on the Korn Ferry Tour. In July 2025, Shipley shot a final-round 64 to come back from seven shots back to claim the title at The Ascendant for his second Korn Ferry Tour victory of the season.

On February 9, 2026, while playing for the Bay Golf Club, Shipley made the first TGL hole in one during his debut match, with the Bay Golf Club going on to win the match 11–5.
