Admitting that she was “heartbroken” by not advancing to the final stage of LPGA Q Series in November, Porter has spent the past few months recharging and reinvigorating her game.
Karis Davidson and Su Oh have passed one of the most gruelling tests in golf as they regained their LPGA card at the eight-round LPGA Q-Series in Alabama.
The trio ended the day in a share of the lead at six-under par in cool and calm conditions – particularly in the morning – at Barwon Heads on the Bellarine Peninsula.
Victorian Su Oh burst on to the scene by winning Karrie Webb’s signature event as an 18-year-old and is now setting the pace for the trophy named in her honour.
For the first time in the history of the LPGA Tour, the Q-Series will be conducted over two weeks with Robyn Choi, Karis Davidson, Stephanie Kyriacou and Sarah Jane Smith earning exemptions in a variety of different ways.
