LPGA Tour Q School series Final Stage leaderboard here.
After 2 weeks and 8 cruelling rounds 46 players in all have made it and secured LPGA Tour status.
If youve been following along with me here you'll know 4 Canadians started out two weeks ago in Mobile Alabama, Jaclyn Lee did not make the top 70 and ties, so went to the Symetra Tour
Veteran Alena Sharp, Selena Costabile and Maddie Szeryk all played the last 4 weeks at Dothan in Georgia.
The winner at -33 from South Korea Na Rin An has played mainly on the Korean Tour. French women and former World #1 amateur, Pauline Roussin Bouchard led most of the way and finished 2nd -32.
Keeping up the international theme, Thailand's Athaya Thitikul 3rd -26, China's Ruoning Yin T4 -21 with Chinese Taipei Peiyun Chien and then the only American in the top 10, Janie Jackson from Huntsville Alabama.
In all 10 different countries were represented in the top 10.
Canadians : Maddie Szeryk from London was the only Canuck to gain LPGA Tour status T35 -5. She has earned just over $75,000 plating on the Symetra Tour since she turned pro in 2018 after her collegiate career at Texas A&M.
Selena Costabile was cruising along at -2 but ran into 4 bogey's in a row, ending up with a +6 78 to finish 68th, while Alena Sharp left herself too much to do on Sunday with a 74 75 weekend to finish 69th.. Both players get Symetra Tour status.
So Maddie joins Brooke Henderson and Maude Aimee LeBlanc as the Canadians on the LPGA Tour in 2022.
I will be interested to see what Alena Sharp does next year. She will get some sponsor invites to LPGA events after her 15 years. She told us earlier this year that she considers herself on the down side of her career, turning 41in 2022, and now happily married to her caddie Sarah Bowman.
