The match has a high-profile host for its inaugural yr, too – 2014 Women’s US Open Champion Michelle Wie-West, and she is going to welcome lots of the global’s very best gamers.

They come with World No.1 Jin Young Ko. After missing part of 2022 with a wrist injury, the South Korean has shown the entire indicators of putting the ones frustrations firmly previously in fresh months. 

She served notice of her form with victory in the HSBC Women’s World Championship in March, and claimed her fifteenth LPGA Tour win in the Cognizant Founders Cup in mid-May. She will be assured of another robust performance this week.

A participant who fared much less neatly in the Cognizant Founders Cup used to be World No.3 Lydia Ko. Her T42 in the tournament endured a mini slump. However, she completed tied for third in the LET’s Aramco Team Series Florida match quickly after, so might be hoping that marks the beginning of a return to her best possible.

Lilia Vu won the primary Major of the 12 months, The Chevron Championship, so as to add to her maiden LPGA Tour win in February’s Honda LPGA Thailand and the World No.Four appears to continue in that vein all through an excellent breakout yr.

The player immediately beneath Vu on the planet scores is Minjee Lee, and the Australian will be looking to position the discontentment of being edged into 2nd by Jin Young Ko at Upper Montclair behind her with a win.

Completing the list of players from the top 10 in the field are former World No.1 Atthaya Thitikul, two-time Major winner Brooke Henderson and 2018 Women’s British Open victor Georgia Hall. 

With the likes of Celine Boutier, Nasa Hataoka and Danielle Kang within the field, too, the match is set for a memorable first match.

The 20-year-old makes her debut as a professional after an amateur occupation that integrated a string of accolades, awards and titles. Zhang leaves the beginner game after a file 141 consecutive weeks on the top of the World Amateur Golf Ranking and will probably be looking to make a right away affect as a professional.

There is a twist with the layout of this week's match, too, with the AJGA (American Junior Golf Association) juniors enjoying a separate 72-hole Stableford event on the venue similtaneously with the 120 LPGA Tour gamers. After the minimize, 24 juniors will play alongside the pros, with one AJGA participant grouped with two LPGA Tour players.
