Cheyenne Knight

Three times an all-American while at the University of Alabama before turning professional in 2018 and had to wait only until the following October for success on the LPGA Tour.

With two rounds of 66 and two 67s she won the Volunteers of America Classic in her home state of Texas by two with an 18-under-par total.

She went into the event in danger of losing her card on the circuit, needing a top five finish to climb from 114th on the money list to inside the leading 100 and so avoid a return to the Qualifying School. “It just means everything knowing that I can persevere and knowing that I’m strong enough to do anything,” she said.
