Nataliya Guseva
The biggest mover in the Race for the Card standings over the past two weeks is Nataliya Guseva. Following her win at the Black Desert Resort Championship and collecting the biggest winner's check in Epson Tour history, Guseva tied for third at the Guardian Championship. In her last six rounds played, the 20-year-old has not recorded a round over 68 and has moved to No. 8 in the Race for the Card. Three weeks ago, Guseva was battling to get into the top 35 to grab a spot for the 2023 LPGA Q-Series. With a win, she can become the second player of the year to clinch their LPGA Tour card for the 2024 season.
Jiwon Jeon
Jiwon Jeon is one of three players on the Epson Tour who have won multiple times during the 2023 season, taking home trophies at the Inova Mission Inn Resort & Club Championship and the French Lick Resort Charity Classic. Jeon is currently No. 3 in the Race for the Card, and with a top-60 finish or better, Jeon will be a member of the LPGA Tour next season. Outside of her two wins, Jeon collected a top-5 finish at the Hartford HealthCare Women's Championship and has only missed one cut in her 2023 season. After a week off, Jeon heads into Murphy USA El Dorado Shootout, ready to lock in her place on the LPGA Tour for her 2024 campaign.
Robyn Choi
Robyn Choi has had one of the best seasons from any player this year, even though she is not currently in the top 10 for the Race for the Card. Choi is first in rounds in the 60s, third in birdies made, seventh in top-10 finishes, and eighth in scoring average in 2023. The 25-year-old is playing the most consistent golf of anyone on the Epson Tour, making 18 out of 18 cuts so far this season. The worst finish for Choi came in the first event of the season at Florida's Natural Charity Classic, where she finished T46. Now, sitting at No. 16 in the Race for the Card standings with three events left to play, Choi will need to put together a big week to jump into the top 10 where her stats indicate she can be.
