New Zealand golfer Amelia Garvey has earned her fourth major start at the US Women’s Open, winning the pre-qualifying event in Canada.
Garvey, who has previously played in the 2020, 2021, and 2023 US Women’s Open, qualified for this year’s event by shooting 69 and 71 at Vancouver Golf Club in Vancouver, British Columbia.
She finished at four-under as the top qualifier. She made 10 birdies, four bogeys, and a double-bogey in her 36-hole day.
The 24-year-old snapped up one of the two spots available at her qualifying event and will join Lydia Ko as the only two Kiwis in the women’s second major of the year.
Ko will have the chance to win her third major and earn the final point she needs to be inducted into the LPGA Tour Hall of Fame at the tournament from May 30-June 2 in Lancaster, Pennsylvania.
