GROUP ONE | RD1: 8:47 AM ET | RD2: 1:47 PM ET

Jenny Bae

Bae is starting her first of two title defenses this week at the Hartford HealthCare Women’s Championship where she won in a 7-hole playoff in 2023. The Epson Tour sophomore has already recorded two top-10 finishes this season but has yet to add a third notch in the victory column for her career. Bae holds the 18-hole tournament record at Great River Golf Club as well, firing a 6-under 66 in her second round in 2023. Expect a good week out of the defending champion and for her to be in contention once again in Milford.

Kendra Dalton

Dalton joined the Epson Tour in 2019 and has since recorded 6 top-10 finishes in that span and has only finished outside the top-60 in the Race for the Card once. This year, Dalton’s best finish came at the Atlantic Beach Charity Classic where she ended the week in a tie for seventh and has since made 6 of the last 8 cuts. Currently she sits at No. 48 in the Race for the Card and is coming back to a course where she finished T27 last year. Another strong finish this week can put Dalton on track to earn her LGPA Tour card for the first time in her career.

Cynthia Lu

Lu is another Epson Tour sophomore who enjoyed a solid rookie season in 2023. The 22-year-old had two top-10 finishes in 2023, including a T4 finish at the Wildhorse Ladies Golf Classic. This season Lu has notched another T4 at the Copper Rock Championship, matching her career best finish. In her last six starts she has made five cuts as she enters the Hartford HealthCare Women’s Championship.

GROUP TWO | RD1: 12:52 PM ET | RD2: 7:52 AM ET

Dorsey Addicks

Addicks is coming off her best swing of events this season in the Midwest, finishing inside the top-15 twice and making the cut in three of the four events. The 2024 campaign has had its ups and downs for the 29-year-old, making six cuts out of the 11 tournaments played and is currently on pace for one of her best finishes in the Race for the Card since joining the Epson Tour in 2018. Addicks participated in the inaugural Hartford HealthCare Women’s Championship, unfortunately missing the cut but will try to take revenge on Great River with a strong performance in this year’s championship.

Lakareber Abe

Abe is coming off a tie for eighth result on the LPGA Tour at the Dow Championship with her partner Georgia Oboh, where they carded a 7-under 63 in the final round to skyrocket up the leaderboard. The first half of the season has been solid for the University of Alabama grad, but she has really found her game over the past couple months. To go along with her strong performance on the LPGA Tour, she has made the last four cuts on the Epson Tour, only finishing outside the top-30 one time.

Brianna Do

Do has spent time on both the LPGA Tour and Epson Tour since her rookie season in 2013. The 34-year-old has made five starts on the Epson Tour this year and one start on the LPGA Tour. Do has not played on the Epson Tour since the Otter Creek Championship where she finished in a tie for 47th. Her best finish on either Tour came at the Carlisle Arizona Women’s Golf Classic, finishing T9 for the week. Do will lean on her experience this week as she tees it up at the Hartford HealthCare Women’s Championship.
