The LPGA Q-Series, the final Qualifying Stage, ended earlier this week after a week-long competition. The top 24 and ties qualified after competing over six days in a 72-hole event.
Helen Briem qualified for the LPGA for the first time after finishing at the top of the leaderboard at the Q-Series Final Qualifying Stage. The 20-year-old fired a 4-under 68 in the final round to top the leaderboard. She also had a great season on the LET, where she finished ninth on the Order of Merit.
The LPGA qualifiers also included some veterans, such as Hinako Shibuno and Ryann O’Toole, who finished inside the top 31 of the leaderboard. While O'Toole finished just two strokes off the lead, Shibuno tied for 24th and just made it to the LPGA Tour.
