Defending champion Rose Zhang began her professional career last May, but two of the last three champions return with Tsubasa Kajitani, who won in 2021, and Anna Davis, who took home to top spot in 2022. The world’s top-ranked amateur, Ingrid Lindblad of LSU, will make her fourth appearance in the tournament. She will look to bounce back from a disappointing finish last year in which she failed to make the cut after tying for third in 2021 and taking second in 2022.
