With just five more events before the season-ending Tour Championship on the LPGA’s Epson Tour, New Zealander Fiona Xu and Australian Cassie Porter are nicely placed to gain one of the 15 LPGA Tour cards for 2025 cards made available to the leading 15 players on the Race for the Card season-long series.
Through 14 events of the 2024 season, Xu tops the standings while Porter is currently 5th, both now assured of graduating, therefore providing Australasia another two representatives on the LPGA Tour next season.
Both 19-year-old Xu and 21-year-old Porter have recorded a win and two other top tens this season.
Xu, a member of the Titirangi Golf Club in Auckland, is a former winner of the Australian and New Zealand Women’s Amateur Championships while Sunshine Coast golfer Porter had a successful amateur career before winning an early event as a professional when successful in a WAPGA event in Melbourne 18 months ago.
