GROUP ONE | 8:28 A.M. ET
Kaitlin Milligan
- Milligan is entering her third full year on the Epson Tour and has collected two top-10 finishes in that time. The 25-year-old finished T27 at LPGA Q-Series to earn dual status on the Epson Tour and LPGA Tour for the 2024 season. She has yet to tee it up on the LPGA Tour this year but will look to start off her 2024 Epson Tour campaign strong at the Florida’s Natural Charity Classic.
Saki Baba
- Baba is entering her first year as a professional after a decorated amateur career. The Japan native won the 2022 U.S. Women’s Amateur and was ranked as high as No. 2 in the World Amateur Golf Rankings. Baba earned her Epson Tour status via LPGA Q-Series where she finished T62 to earn membership on the LPGA’s Official Qualifying Tour for the 2024 season.
Dewi Weber
- Weber joined the Epson Tour in 2021 before moving up to the LPGA Tour in 2022 after a T10 finish at LPGA Q-Series. She has played on the LPGA Tour over the last two seasons, with her best result being a T6 finish at the 2022 Dow Great Lakes Bay Invitational. The 2024 Florida’s Natural Charity Classic is Weber’s first start in the event since 2020, and she finished in a tie for 13th that year.
GROUP TWO | 12:46 P.M. ET
Cydney Clanton
- Clanton is an LPGA Tour veteran who has been splitting time between the Epson Tour and the LPGA Tour over the past two seasons. The 34-year-old is a three-time winner on the Epson Tour, and her most recent victory came last year at the 2023 Guardian Championship. To go along with her three victories on the Epson Tour, Clanton has one victory on the LPGA Tour, which came at the 2019 Dow Great Lakes Bay Invitational alongside her playing partner Jasmine Suwannapura.
Kaitlyn Papp Budde
- Papp Budde was a two-time All-American at the University of Texas before turning professional in 2021. At 2021 LPGA Q-Series, Papp Budde earned LPGA Tour status for the 2022 season, making eight cuts in 18 starts and finishing No. 154 in the Race to the CME Globe. With poor LPGA Tour status, she elected to compete on the Epson Tour in 2023, compiling three top-10 finishes in 15 starts and finishing No. 51 in the Race for the Card standings.
Sophie Hausmann
- Hausmann returns to the Epson Tour after her season was cut short in 2023 due to a stress fracture in her left foot. Before the injury, the German recorded three top-10 finishes in 16 starts, only missing four cuts in that same span. Hausmann has made it into the winner’s circle on the Epson Tour as well, winning the 2021 IOA Championship presented by Morongo Casino Resort and Spa by three shots over Maude-Aimee Leblanc and Sophia Schubert.
