What a tremendous achievement! Congratulations to her!

Haven't read much about Jennie Park playing in this. It starts Wednesday.

Jennie Park tees off tomorrow at 7:12 AM central.

Link to scoreboard - Jennie's in 49th place right now at +3 through 6

Agusta Nationa Women's Amateur Scores

Is there a lottery for these tickets?

How did you get them?

On the anwagolf.com website there is a gallery of pictures taken at the practice round yesterday and Jennie and her caddy are in one of them.

For tickets there is an online lottery that starts in June I think. Check masters.com or anwagolf.com. I put in for both tournaments last year and failed again.

Cayetana Fernandez Garcia-Poggio(Blanca's younger sister), an A&M commit, and 17 years old is sitting 41st after 7 holes!

Interesting, I didn't know until I looked just now, but they only play Augusta National for the 3rd and final round.

Yeah, there is a 30th and ties cut after 2 rounds and only those ladies get to play AN. So need her to make some progress.

curious for those who've been to the anwgt how it is? Seems like my chances of winning tickets to the Masters goes down every year and will never win. Surely chances are easier to score tickets to the ladies tournament?

I'm just worried I'd win tickets to the ladies tournament and go then it would only piss me off more since it isn't the masters? Just curious if that ANGC/Masters pageantry we all love is still in the air and the vibe is similar?

honestly haven't thought about it but I will apply for tickets to the women's amateur going forward because I just want to access the property and see the beauty.

I have a friend that went. You get to see the whole course, the merch shop is open and fully stocked, and these ladies are playing some damn good golf. I'd say it's in proximation of a Monday practice round at least (I've been to the Masters for a Monday and a Tuesday; somehow won the lottery in both 17 and 18).

Jennie's up to 34th @ +2, 1 stroke behind the "cut" l ine.

Frankly 90% of going to the masters is just about going to AN. I think it would scratch that itch.

I have been to the Masters 4 times (2009, 2010, 2011, 2022). We are headed to the ANWA this Saturday. I will repost a comparison when I get back.

The wife and I will be there on Monday - I'm there primarily to see the property...any golf that I see will just be extra.

I do seem to recall that you put in the ANWA tickets in the same application as the regular toonament lottery.

There's probably shorter lines in the AN gift shop... thats the real teason why we all go

Garcia-Poggio finished the day at +1, currently tied for 17th. That's sick!

And Zhang from Stanford, she's a robot.

Zhang might win this by double digits.

I'd go back just to have the peach ice cream sandwiches. Those were delicious. And I'm not even a huge peach fan.

Just listened to reigning champion Anna Davis on the Golf Channel. She was penalized 4 shots. Something about picking up and marking her ball in the rough on holes 1 and 4.

Park finished in an 11 way tie for 32nd place. Last year there was a 4 player playoff for 30th place to qualify for the final round.

I was lucky enough to go to the Masters in 2017. Any chance to get on the property and see it for yourself is reason enough to go.

That does raise a dilemma in my mind. As much as I love Masters swag (spent about $700 when I was there, best I can recall), I would be torn on buying Masters swag if I could only go to the ANWA. I kinda have a rule that I won't wear stuff of places or events I haven't been to (one of the reasons I want to play Bay Hill so I can buy Arnie umbrella gear). Not sure I could buy Masters gear if I hadn't gone to the Masters. And wearing Masters gear would only lead to the inevitable questions about when you went and then you have to say you didn't.

I like that regardless if they make the cut or not, the whole field gets to play Augusta in the practice round on Friday.

I don't believe they are going to do a playoff this year.

Ties will make it to final round.

Hopefully Park plays well tomorrow and makes the cut.

It's a lottery like the Masters.

She wins everything. Probably the safe bet

She's essentially an elite professional playing in an amateur event.

The No Laying Up video special on Stanford women's team was really good. It obviously features her and Rachel Heck heavily.

Correct.
