VENICE (SNN-TV) – The highly anticipated Stage II of the LPGA and Epson Tour Qualifying Tournament returns to Venice after getting rescheduled due to damage from Hurricane Ian.
The tournament, which serves as a stepping-stone to Q-Series and the LPGA Tour, begins this Thursday. One hundred and seventy eight individuals will compete in a 72-hole, stroke-play format at Plantation Golf and Country Club on the Bobcat and Panther courses. There is no cut during the week and players will tee off in foursomes in an effort to alleviate daylight concerns.
Players competing in Venice this week range from ages 16-40 and include 36 amateurs and 104 qualifiers from Stage I. Top players at the end of the week will move on to Q-Series in December for a chance to earn 2023 eligibility on the LPGA Tour.
