Like on the boys side, the 41st Junior PGA Championship will feature a strong field, and will include last years 2nd place finisher, who also lost in a playoff. However, where the guys return a respectful 6 of the top 10 at last years event, the girls return 9 of the top 10. In Bryan, TX at the Miramont Country Club in 2015, Elizabeth Wang beat Mariel Galdiano to capture the 40th Junior PGA Championship.
Joining these two from last years top 10 are: Yujeong Son, Karah Sanford, Jennifer Chang, Alyaa Abdulghany, Hailee Cooper, Ariana Saenz and Lucy Li. That's a strong field. And, four of those players are coming off an impressive week at the US Women's Amateur. Galdiano was medalist. Li finished second in the medal portion and reached the round of 32 in match play. Cooper got to the round of 16. Abdulghany made it to the round of 32. And another player, Kaitlyn Papp also reached the round of 64.

Parker Coody and Cole Hammer are the two 2018's, Will Thompson and Mason Nome are the 2019's. Wannamoisett CC is no stranger to Nome, who has a hole-in-one on number 3, just last year.
