Stephanie Meadow Secures US Women's Open Spot

Stephanie Meadow, originating from Northern Ireland, secured a late entry into the upcoming US Women’s Open in Pennsylvania after narrowly missing qualification earlier this month. Despite missing out initially, she earned one of four alternate spots, setting the stage for her eighth appearance in the prestigious tournament. Her determination and resilience have granted her another opportunity to compete on the grand stage of the US Women’s Open. Meadow embarked on her US Women’s Open journey in 2012 as an amateur and achieved a notable third-place finish in 2014, marking her debut as a professional.

Entering the tournament ranked 69th in the LPGA’s 2024 standings and 120th globally, Stephanie Meadow brings a blend of experience and fluctuating form. Despite a notable eighth-place finish at the Blue Bay Championship in March, her recent string of three missed cuts in the last six events adds an element of unpredictability to her performance. Alongside fellow Irish players Leona Maguire and amateur Aine Donegan, Stephanie Meadow readies herself to compete at the Lancaster Country Club.

Their collective presence adds an extra layer of excitement to the tournament, promising an engaging display of talent from Ireland. The event’s lineup is led by world number one Nelly Korda, heightening the excitement surrounding the competition. Her presence promises an exhilarating showdown, further elevating the prestige of the tournament.
