USGA Women’s State Team
September 26-28, 2017
The Club at Las Campanas, Sante Fe, New Mexico
The USGA Women’s State Team Championship began in 1995 where all states, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico were invited to enter teams of three players. The only golfers ineligible to participate are those currently on a college team, per NCAA rules. As a result, the field for the Women’s State Team Championship has been made up almost entirely of high school, mid amateur and senior players. The competition is held every two years (odd) and state associations are given the option to choose their teams by any method.
Format
The USGA Women’s State Team Championship format is stroke play and the team score consists of the best two scores of each state’s three players on each of the three days.
MISSOURI USGA STATE TEAM SELECTION:
The team selection is by the MGA Executive Director with input from other MGA Board of Directors. The criteria for the selection of the team is going to come by the results of the competitions the past two years in both USGA Championships and MGA Championships. Play in the current year the USGA State Team Championship is scheduled will weigh a little more than the previous year. The goal is to send the players who are playing the best leading up to the event to represent Team Missouri!
Note: This is the final year for the USGA Women’s and Men’s State Team
